Variant

Note: this product will be shipped within 10 days. Distilled in 1965 and matured for over half a century in refill sherry casks, this remarkable Karuizawa captures the distillery’s signature fruit, spice and long-aged wood in rare harmony. Bottled at 58.3% by Elixir Distillers and limited to just 318 bottles worldwide, it’s an exquisite relic from one of Japan’s most fabled silent distilleries. Presented in a sculptural kintsugi-inspired decanter, each bottle features its own gold-etched illustration, an elegant tribute to Karuizawa’s enduring legacy.

Nose - Sandalwood and polished wood lead the way, opening into warm spices - clove, ginger, caraway - and bright citrus oils. Dark fruit follows, with plum and blackcurrant wrapped in soft brown sugar and toasted cinnamon.

Palate - Blackcurrant sweets and ripe tropical fruit meet layers of dusty spice in the form of clove, cumin and star anise. A gentle dryness develops, bringing notes of fresh coffee, mint and liquorice.

Finish - Blood orange marmalade lingers with a wisp of incense smoke and a savoury hint of dried herbs. The kind of finish you’ll be thinking about long after the glass is empty.
