shizuoka destillery prologue kAt the end of 2020, the Shizuoka Distillery launched its first bottling. This single malt whisky was distilled in the only remaining still of the legendary Karuizawa distillery. After just over three years of maturation in bourbon casks, it was bottled at a robust 55% ABV. The limited production of just 5,000 bottles sold out within hours. Only one bottle per person and household.
