| I have tried a couple of Karuizawa whiskies in the past and they were outstanding. These should be quite different being from a First Fill Sherry Cask and First Fill Bourbon Cask. The Bourbon cask would appeal to me most. |

That's a nice acquisition. Let us know what it's like when you start pouring.

| Havent tried any myself but Karuizawa does have a very good reputation. Do let us know what you think of the Karuizawa 1984 when you get it. |

A friend of mine was at the TWE Whisky Show and raved about the Karuizawa 1984 First Fill Sherry Cask #4021, he called it a big sherried Japanese beauty. It is very tempting and i see it isnt sold out yet. 64.5% and distilled in 1984  i wonder what strength Karuizawa fill there casks at. |
