- Description
- Karuizawa 29 Year Old from this now-closed Japanese distillery is a bourbon-cask-matured whisky that displays the deep colour and richness typically associated with sherry influence. Nearly three decades of maturation in oak have created a complex, well-integrated spirit showing layers of dried fruit, subtle oak spice, and gentle wood influence. The palate is refined and concentrated, with the patience of three decades evident in every sip. A rare opportunity to experience Japanese whisky from one of its most storied producers at peak maturity.
