Karuizawa (silent) Japanese Single Malt Whisky 10 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with coppery glints and a warm honey-gold sheen.

Nose

Dark and opulent on the nose, with dried fig and prune entwined with orange zest and cocoa. Subtle sherry sweetness meets vanilla and caramel, while tobacco, leather and cedar lend depth. A touch of cinnamon and clove spiciness sits over toasted oak, inviting a slow, contemplative swirl.

Palate

Silky, medium-bodied on the palate; a gentle sweetness of honey and vanilla coats the tongue. Orchard fruit—peach and pear—soften into citrus zest and almond. Subtle spice—white pepper and nutmeg—unfold with light oak and cedar, leaving a refined, resinous warmth. The finish lingers with a hint of smoke and incense-like elegance.

Finish

An expansive, serene finish that unfolds with velvet warmth and quiet complexity. Gentle smoke drifts into subtle spice, while polished oak threads a refined, dry sweetness that lingers gracefully long after each sip.
