A limited-edition Japanese single grain whisky from the closed Kawasaki distillery, bottled in celebration of Whisky Live in Tokyo in 2011. Distilled in 1982, matured in an ex-sherry butt and bottled in 2011. Non-chillfiltered, naturally coloured and bottled at a natural cask strength of 65.5%.
Founded in 1935 in the town of the same name, the Kawasaki grain distillery was closed in January 1983. Ichiro Akuto (Chichibu, Hanyu, Karuizawa) managed to get his hands on the last barrels still available at the start of the 2000s. Barrels were shared amongst several companies, including Part des Anges, La Maison du Whisky, Nonjatta, Ichiro's Choice, Whisky Live Tokyo and Number One Drinks, leading to a variety of labels and bottlings.
