Karuizawa Vintage 1982 - Single Bourbon Cask No. 8497

A beautifully presented single malt from a cask obtained from the closed distillery Karuizawa. Distilled in 1982 in a First fill bourbon cask number 8497 then bottled in 2012 at 46% vol.

Karuizawa Distillery was established in 1955 in the foothills of Mount Asama, an active volcano. The area is a popular mountain resort to the north-west of Tokyo and the distillery is the highest in Japan at 850 meters above sea level.

The environment is ideal for whisky production, enjoying low temperatures and high humidity. Production of single malt whisky at the distillery ceased in 2000.
