Karuizawa is the gold standard of rare Japanese whisky. The distillery closed its doors in 2011, although it had not been producing whisky for over a decade. Karuizawa Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji is a series of landscape prints by the Japanese ukiyo-e artist Hokusai. This particular bottle with Sketch Of the Mitsui Shop In Suruga In Edo label is a 1999 and 2000 cask strength vintage.
