Karuizawa Spirit of Asama The Final Vintage Japanese Single Malt Whisky 55.0% Vol. from the legendary Karuizawa distillery at the foot of Mount Asama
Karuiza Distillery was established in 1955 in the foothills of Mount Asama, an active volcano north-west of Tokyo, to make single malt whisky in as tradional manner as possible. At 850 metres above sea level, the distillery is the highest in Japan, low temperatures and high humidity provide an ideal micro-climate for whisky production. Bottled in 2012, this single malt has been crafted from hand selected European oak sherry casks of whisky distilled in 1999 and 2000 and bottled at 55% vol., the final vintages of Karuizawa. The sherry character in the finished dram is just astounding, as is the almost rancio-like flavour on the palate. Just brilliant and hard to find today!
