Karuizawa 30 Year Old Samurai Series – Complete Set of 10 Bottles

The Karuizawa 30 Year Old Samurai Series is one of the most iconic collections ever released from Japan's legendary closed distillery. Combining exceptional single-cask whiskies with artwork inspired by the spirit of the samurai, the series celebrates two enduring symbols of Japanese heritage: masterful whisky craftsmanship and the country's warrior tradition.

This complete set brings together all ten bottlings from the acclaimed Samurai Series, distilled in 1984 and 1985 and bottled between 2014 and 2015 after three decades of maturation. Each whisky was drawn from an individual cask and bottled at its natural cask strength, ensuring every expression faithfully reflects the unique character of its cask.

The collection is dominated by Karuizawa's celebrated Sherry Butt maturation, the style that helped establish the distillery's legendary reputation, while one bottling offers the rare contrast of maturation in a Bourbon Cask. Every bottle is presented in its original wooden case with the accompanying booklet, highlighting the exceptional attention to detail that has become synonymous with Karuizawa's most prestigious releases.

Following the closure of the distillery in 2000, releases such as the Samurai Series quickly achieved cult status among collectors. Complete sets have become exceptionally difficult to assemble, making this collection a rare opportunity to acquire one of the defining chapters in Karuizawa's history.
