Description

This uniquely blended whisky from Sun Foods was created by marrying delicious malts and grains from around the world together. The title 'Karuizawa' may refer to the town which is located at the foot of Mount Asama, or the perennial lost distillery of the same name! There is no evidence to suggest there is any of the highly prized whisky in this bottle... 43% ABV / 70cl
