KARUIZAWA Vintages 1999&2000 Batch 24 60,7%
Single Malt Whisky, Japan / Honshu - Nagano, 70cl, Ref: 56533
Located northwest of Tokyo at the foot of Mount Asama, the Karuizawa distillery has become almost legendary since its closure in 2000. This single malt from the last years of production is bottled at its natural strength. Ushibori was a small inland harbor on Lake Kasumi-‐ga-‐ura. The focus of the print is a large boat and a man washing rice; the cast-‐ off water startles two herons, which fly toward the left edge of the print.
Profile: balanced, fruity. Candied fruit, sweet spices, honey.

The brand
The Karuizawa distillery was built in 1955 in the town of the same name, in the prefecture of Nagano surrounded by the Japanese Alps. Japanese whisky generally has a very good reputation, but Karuizawa is especially sought after and appreciated by connoisseurs; it has accumulated an impressive number of medals in competitions. Just like Macallan, it is a whisky that owes much of its character to the type of barley that is used: (‘Golden Promise’) and to ageing in sherry casks. Production stopped in 2000 and bottles are becoming increasingly rare.
