Karuizawa and Kawasaki Ghost Series #7 / Time Slip
We are very excited to offer this bottle within our exclusive Karuizawa auction which runs from Wednesday 5th April to Monday 17th April.
Karuizawa produced outstanding whiskies, many of which have received international acclaim. They have released almost 300 single casks which are becoming increasingly rarer and rarer as demand soars.
This limited bottling is a blend of Karuizawa Malt and Kawasaki Grain whiskies that were blended in the late 1970s, rested in neutral glass containers and then forgotten about for over 3 decades. This rested spirit was rediscovered in 2014 and transferred to an ex-Karuizawa sherry butt for a period of finishing (or "ACEing) until bottling in 2015.
Aged in ex-Karuizawa single cask #6432, which yielded 282 bottles. This is Bottle No. 71.
The label features the print 'The Ghost of Taira no Tomomori Appears at Daimotsu Bay' from Yoshitoshi's 'New Forms of 36 Ghosts'.
