Karuizawa 1981/2011
(57.5%, OB for The Whisky Exchange, cask #6256) 
Colour: full gold. Nose: similar to cask #6207 at first nosing
but slightly less aromatic. More coffee too. Mouth: more complex this time, more
spices, dried fruits, oranges, kumquats, cough syrup, tar, lapsang souchong…
High quality. Finish: long, spicy. Bitter herbs in the aftertaste. Comments:
much to my liking. SGP:562 - 90 points.
Karuizawa 1982/2009 (56.1%, OB, No.1 Drinks Co for TWE 10th Anniversary, First Fill Sherry, Cask#2748)
This one almost fetched gold at the MM
Awards 2009 (high silver). Colour: amber. Nose: a different planet here, this
more sumptuous and wonderfully balanced, with many ‘candied’ aromas, nougat,
café latte, raspberry liqueur, oranges, Nutella (not kidding), then old rancio,
walnuts… Fantastic, even at such high strength. With water: wow! Earth and mint,
then various fresh mushrooms (no mouldiness). Even truffles (but not these, err,
sulphury notes that sometimes come with truffles). Mouth (neat): it’s a tad less
rounded now, and probably more vinous than on the nose, but the earthiness is
superb, as well as all the notes of herbs and teas. Mint, hawthorn, lemon balm…
All that coated with a sauce made out of prunes and oranges.
With water: more oak but it’s a flavourful
oak, adding many spicy and vegetal notes that aren’t so common in whisky.
Savory? Mother-of-thyme? Finish: long, oak-coated thus maybe a tad dry-as-dust
but it actually works greatly, with quite some mint and even a little eucalyptus
counterbalancing the whole in the aftertaste. Comments: a rich, mature yet
restless dram. I scored it 91 points at the MM Awards so I won’t change the
rating, but I might have gone a tad higher… SGP:562
