Karuizawa – 33 Year Old (1981) Single Cask (#136)

Distilled in March 1981 at the now-silent Karuizawa Distillery – Japan’s smallest – this 33-year-old whisky represents a rare piece of liquid history. Matured exclusively in a single sherry cask, #136, for over three decades, it embodies the unique character imparted by both time and wood. Expect a complex and richly layered profile, hinting at dried fruits, spice, and a subtle sweetness derived from its sherry maturation. Bottled in July 2014, this expression offers a final taste of Karuizawa’s distinctive spirit.
