This sale contains a set two bottles of Karuizawa Sherry Cask consist of an ultra-rare single malt Japanese whisky released in 2013 by Elixir Distillers exclusively for The Whisky Exchange.
With demand for Karuizawa single casks at an all-time high, the people at The Whisky Exchange wanted to try and distribute the few hundred bottles that cask #6506 & #3663 had yielded in a different way – that is to say, not on a first-click, first-served basis. They decided to run a lottery for this remarkable bottle.
KARUIZAWA 1981 SHERRY SINGLE CASK (VOLUME 700ML / ABV.60.3%)
Cask #6056, 1st fill sherry cask, distilled in 1981 bottled in 2013, one of 348 bottles.
An incredibly intense 1981 vintage bottling from cult closed Japanese distillery Karuizawa. Aged in a sherry cask for more than 30 years, this is another excellent example from this legendary distillery.

Cask #3663, 1st fill sherry cask, distilled in 1984 bottled in 2013, one of 354 bottles.
Big, rich and packed with sherry fruit.
