It began production the following year, producing single malt for the Ocean blends from Daikoku Budoshu. Initially, it was difficult for the distillery to obtain malt, but a lift on import restrictions in 1958 meant the distillery was able to experiment with the production of a Speyside-esque product, importing the same golden promise barely used at Macallan, and sherry casks. The subsequent quality of output saw it appearing in Japan as a single malt for the first time in the 1980s. Sadly, the Japanese whisky market was not strong at the time, and Karuizawa was closed in 2001 by owners, Mercian, and eventually dismantled. Its legacy lives on, however, with it still relocated to other distilleries in Japan, but predominantly in the hugely sought-after single cask releases that began to appear in 2007, from independent bottler, Number One Drinks. It is now one of the most prestige single malts on the planet, the reverence for which only grows as the remaining stock continues to thin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis limited bottling consists of multi-vintage Cask Strength Karuizawa from the distillery’s final years of production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis is part of the\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e36 Views of Mount Fuji\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eseries (Fugaku Sanjūrokkei in Japanese), and each release features a different image from the series on its label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis bottle is the 36th edition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52736215712107,"sku":"SK82701728","price":9875.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/KaruizawaFugakuSanjurokkei36ViewsofMountFuji36thRelease_e1bb6f0a-be86-48fb-a4d6-6aa19be5312f.jpg?v=1767590216","url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/products\/karuizawa-fugaku-sanjurokkei-36-views-of-mount-fuji-36th-release-60-8-700ml","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
