The Karuizawa 1983 - 30 Year Old - Cask no. 8606 is a single malt whisky from the Karuizawa distillery, which ceased operations in 2001. Distilled in 1983 and bottled in 2013, this whisky was aged for 30 years in a bourbon cask. It is part of the Geisha Label series, with a limited release of 350 bottles, each with a volume of 700 ml and an alcohol strength of 55.8% Vol.
The Karuizawa distillery was situated in the mountainous town of Karuizawa, Japan, and has since become renowned among whisky collectors due to the scarcity of its products post-closure. This particular bottling was produced exclusively for The Whisky Exchange for The Whisky Show 2013.
Given its limited availability and the extended maturation period, the Karuizawa 1983 - 30 Year Old - Cask no. 8606 represents a noteworthy specimen for whisky collectors and investors.
