Karuizawa-1984-#8173
Bottled April 2014 for La Maison du Whisky. Distilled at Karuizawa Distillery
One of 363 bottles. Cask no. 8173, Ex-Bourbon cask. Good label.
"...Mouth (neat): huge and incredibly fruity! You would think that this massive woodiness would overwhelm the spirit and just make the whole extremely dry, while that's exactly what's not happening. We're gravitating around sweeter citrus, that is to say kumquats, oranges and mandarins, covered with crushed cloves and ground pepper. Christmassy? You said it. With water: same profile, just even more vivid and 'nervous'. Perfect oranges. Finish: long, never embarrassingly oak, always fresh albeit massive." (5 Stars-Whiskyfun)
