Blackadder Raw Cask Shizuoka 2019 – 4 Year Old – Pot Still K (Cask No. 1129)

Extremely Limited | Japanese Single Malt | Unfiltered & Natural Cask Strength

A landmark bottling. This 4-year-old Shizuoka single malt, drawn from Pot Still K and hand-selected by Blackadder for their uncompromising Raw Cask range, is a rare intersection of Japanese craftsmanship and independent bottling purity.

Distilled in 2019 at the now-cult-status Shizuoka Distillery, known for its hybrid of Scottish and Japanese distilling traditions, this expression is bottled directly from Cask No. 1129 — completely unfiltered, uncoloured, and presented at natural cask strength, with fine sediment in the bottle as proof of its raw authenticity.

Expect vibrant youth, remarkable depth, and a clear sense of place: mountain air, forest influence, and elegant wood meeting clean, sweet malt.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh-cut cedar, grilled pear, wasabi leaf, and sandalwood incense

Palate: Malty and lively, with notes of white peach, toasted barley, green tea, and cracked pepper

Finish: Long, clean, and lightly drying — a touch of oak smoke and citrus pith on the fade

A collector’s dream. A connoisseur’s delight. A milestone in modern Japanese whisky.

This is Shizuoka, raw and unfiltered — as honest and expressive as it gets.

Only a handful of casks from Shizuoka ever make it into independent bottler hands. This one? Already a future classic.
