The Karuizawa Distillery was established in 1955 in the foothills of Mount Asama – an active volcano. The area is a popular mountain resort and the distillery is the highest in Japan at 850m above sea level. Everything from Karuizawa is really good. This particular Karuizawa bottle is from the Ghost Series. It was distilled in 1996 and was bottled in 2013. This whisky is as superb as everything else from Karuizawa! A rare collector’s item which will only become rarer as time passes. Grab it while it’s still here!
