1981 (bottled 2013) (cask 6056) Whisky

Distilled at the legendary Karuizawa distillery in 1981, this single malt Japanese whisky was matured for over 30 years in a first-fill sherry cask. Bottled in 2013 by Speciality Drinks at a formidable cask strength of 60.3% ABV, it is a rare and highly sought-after example of the distillery’s rich, sherried style. Drawn from cask 6056, this release stands as a testament to Karuizawa’s craftsmanship before its closure in 2001. This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
