Karuizawa (silent) 100% Malt Whisky 8 Year Old

Colour

Golden amber with sunlit honey tones and a coppery glow.

Nose

Polished oak and malt open to a lush bouquet of dried fig and plum, orange zest, and dark chocolate. Vanilla, almond, and cinnamon weave through a whisper of smoke and cedar, while a mineral brightness keeps the sweetness lively and refined.

Palate

Silky, medium-full on the palate with a malty backbone and honeyed fruit. Apple and pear unfold into dried apricot, warming vanilla and almond. Subtle spice - cinnamon and white pepper - accentuates the grain, while toasted oak adds a gentle toast. The finish is long and refined, leaving delicate malt, a trace of coffee, and a soft fade of sweetness.

Finish

Silky and persistent, the finish lingers with gentle malt sweetness, honeyed cereal and a whisper of citrus zest. Soft oak and a trace of spice leave a clean, refined warmth that fades slowly.
