- Description
- Karuizawa's 1977 release from the Noh Performers series represents 32 years of Japanese whisky maturation at the now-closed distillery, with a distinctive greenish tint from extended cask interaction. The extreme age and cask influence create a complex, aged profile that collectors recognise as rare Japanese whisky heritage, though tasting notes should be confirmed upon tasting. This bottling's provenance and rarity make it significant for serious collectors. A museum piece as much as a drinking whisky, suited to those preserving Japanese distilling history.
