Founded in 1955 at the foot of the Japanese Alps in Nagano Prefecture, Karuizawa has achieved legendary status among whisky collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. Renowned for its use of Golden Promise barley and rich sherry cask maturation, the distillery produced some of Japan’s most sought-after whiskies before ceasing production in 2000. With stocks becoming increasingly scarce, every remaining bottling represents a rare piece of Japanese whisky history.
This 12 Year Old 1999 Vintage Label Cask #867 showcases the bold and characterful style that made Karuizawa famous. Distilled during the distillery’s final years of operation and matured in a single cask, it captures the intensity, richness and depth associated with this cult producer. Bottlings from Karuizawa are increasingly difficult to find, making this an exceptional opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts to own a whisky from one of Japan’s most revered lost distilleries.
