About the Distillery

Founded in 1955 at the foot of Mount Asama, Karuizawa Distillery became renowned for producing rich, full-bodied single malts crafted from Scottish malted barley and aged primarily in sherry casks. Known for its small-scale production and meticulous approach, Karuizawa operated until its closure in 2000. Today, its remaining casks have achieved legendary status among collectors, admired for their profound depth, intensity, and unmistakable character - qualities that have made Karuizawa one of the most coveted names in whisky history.
