Aged for 31 Years, Karuizawa 31 Year Old Cask 5208 1981 is a single cask Japanese malt whisky, distilled at the now-silent Karuizawa distillery in Nagano. Matured in a Sherry butt and bottled in 2012 at 60.1% ABV, this whisky belongs to the highly regarded 1981 vintage, known for its exceptional quality. The distillation employs Golden Promise Barley and small, direct-fired stills, yielding an oily, robust spirit. Cask 5208 presents notes of Christmas cake, dark chocolate, tobacco, and a distinct volcanic minerality. This release, with its rare outturn, exemplifies the effects of high-altitude Sherry maturation and stands as a sought-after collectible for enthusiasts.
