From the esteemed Karuizawa distillery, this 31 Year Old Cask 5026, distilled in 1981, showcases the depth of Japanese whisky craftsmanship. Matured in a Sherry butt, it was bottled in 2012 at 58.7% ABV. Utilising Golden Promise barley and traditional small, direct-fired stills, this whisky is emblematic of the high-altitude conditions in Nagano. Cask 5026 is particularly known for its intense concentration, exhibiting notes of molasses, Christmas cake, and roasted coffee intertwined with distinct volcanic minerality. With a dark, resinous colour and bold texture, it exemplifies the distillery’s expertise in wood management, making it a sought-after specimen for collectors of premium Japanese whiskies.
