A single malt from Japan's Karuizawa distillery joins our own Master of Malt single cask collection. A monumental moment, we think you'll agree. The distillery closed back in 2000, and these days, it's a rare thing to find a drop of Karuizawa. Distilled in 1998, this single malt spent 19 years maturing in a sherry hogshead, and we got our hands on enough drops to fill precisely 15 bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKaruizawa 19 Year Old 1998 Single Cask (Private Label) | 700ML Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pageCopy\" id=\"ContentPlaceHolder1_ctl00_ctl02_TastingNoteBox_ctl00_noseTastingNote\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eA quilt of pure, earthy, salty, dark and warm notes coexist in masterful harmony here, from the supple fruitiness of Medjool dates, sultanas and preserved cherries to the thick richness of ancient polished oak furniture, menthol tobacco, rancio and worn leather.

The distillery housed four small stills and imported Golden Promise barley from Scotland to create their whisky, which was then often aged in Sherry casks. Sadly, the distillery was mothballed in 2001, with their stocks of slowly trickling out to market, where the bottles have become quite the collector's item for whisky enthusiasts. In 2011, the UK-based company Number One Drinks purchased the remaining stocks of Karuizawa’s whisky.
