Karuizawa 1988 19 Year Old 59.3% #7683 - Vintage Single Cask Malt Whisky

This Karuizawa 1988 single malt was distilled at the renowned Japanese distillery and bottled on 20 February 2007 after 19 years of maturation. Released as part of the Vintage - Single Cask Malt Whisky series, it comes from a single Sherry Butt, Cask #7683, preserving the identity of one individual cask throughout its maturation and bottling.

Bottled at 59.3% ABV, this Karuizawa 19 Year Old retains a substantial level of strength while remaining a classic example of the distillery's vintage single-cask releases. The combination of the 1988 vintage, Sherry Butt maturation, individual cask number and precise 2007 bottling date makes this an especially well-defined expression for collectors of historic Japanese whisky.

Unlike independent bottlings, this release was bottled directly by Karuizawa Distillery. The Vintage - Single Cask Malt Whisky designation further highlights the importance of the individual cask and vintage, two key characteristics of Karuizawa's collectible single malt releases.

About Karuizawa

Karuizawa is one of the most recognised names in the history of Japanese single malt whisky. The distillery produced whisky in relatively limited quantities, and surviving Karuizawa bottles from individual vintages and casks are now an important part of the Japanese whisky collector's market. Distillery Bottlings such as this one provide a direct link to the original Karuizawa production and its historic single-cask releases.
