Karuizawa 16 Year Old Cask 3681 1996 is a single cask Japanese malt whisky, distilled during the final decade of operations at the now-closed distillery in Nagano. Bottled in 2013 at a cask strength of 58.9%, it reflects the intense production style characteristic of this period. The whisky matured in a Sherry butt, leading to a swift integration of notes typical of Sherry maturation in the region`s cool climate. Tasting reveals layers of dark fruits, bitter cocoa, and a subtle hint of savoury tobacco, all complemented by an oily texture from the traditional coal-fired stills and Golden Promise barley. This limited release exemplifies the distillery`s unique character.
