This single-cask bottling of a Shizuoka single malt, an original distillery bottling, was produced for the independent bottler Blackadder as part of the Raw Cask series. The whisky was distilled in 2018, matured in an ex-bourbon cask and bottled at cask strength in 2023 in a run of 223 bottles.
Shizuoka is a distillery in Japan founded by Gaia Flow in 2017. The distillery previously used by the legendary Karuizawa distillery, which was dismantled in 2011, was brought back to life there.
The whisky from Japan is like its makers. At first glance, reserved, respectful and polite. On closer inspection, however, enormously profound and multi-layered. Japanese whisky is the result of perfected craftsmanship. Many whiskies from Japan carry exotic fruity aromas and a floral bouquet in front of them.
