KARUIZAWA
Sat in the slopes of Mount Asama, an active volcano near the Nagano Prefacture in central Japan, Karuizawa began production in 1957 and was owned by The Mercian Corporation. Only Golden Promise barley and sherry casks were used to make Karuizawa whisky, with wooden wash backs and water from the active volcano. The Karuizawa distillery closed in 2001, making it a ghost distillery, where bottles continue to be released from previously filled barrels even after production had closed.
