The Sapphire Geishas

Bottled by Elixir Distillers exclusively for The Whisky Exchange

The fifth instalment in the Karuizawa Geishas series, bottled by Elixir Distillers and exclusive to The Whisky Exchange, is comprised of two single-cask bottlings of this profoundly-rare and sought-after spirit. Aged in sherry casks for 31 and 36 years respectively, these Sapphire Geishas showcase the rich and lavish characteristics for which Karuizawa’s output is so famed.

Established in 1955, Karuizawa, Japanese whisky royalty, would have marked its 65th anniversary this year – its Sapphire Jubilee. Though it has been two decades since the distillery’s closure, these Sapphire Geishas pay tribute to its continuing legend, not to mention its place in our hearts.
