Distilled in 1999 and bottled in 2017, this sherry-cask matured single malt is one of only 440 bottles, drawn from a single cask during the final years of the legendary Karuizawa Distillery. With the distillery’s closure in 2000, each remaining cask represents a vanishing chapter of Japanese whisky history—one steeped in tradition, beauty, and precision.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe label’s elegant artwork evokes the grace of the Miyako Odori, a seasonal performance steeped in centuries of Japanese cultural heritage.
