Karuizawa Cask Strength 4th Release 1999-2000

This cask strength Karuizawa offers a delightful nose without any overpowering alcohol burn. Aromas unfold with notes of crisp apples, vanilla ice cream, butterscotch, and hints of cherry jam. Despite the initial presence of 60.1% ABV, it showcases a balance that never overwhelms the dram. Expect flavours of cinnamon apples, stewed ginger, rancio, reminiscent of old leather-bound books, and a touch of dark chocolate bitterness on the mid-palate.
