Whispers from the Past – Karuizawa Kohaku Roman by Sun Foods
🌏 Description
The Karuizawa “Kohaku Roman” is a rare and evocative expression from the revered Karuizawa name, revived and distributed under the Sun Foods label. Kohaku means “amber,” and Roman denotes “romance” or “narrative” in Japanese, hinting at the layered story this whisky tells with each sip. From the amber-hued liquid to its serene complexity, this bottling pays homage to the legendary Karuizawa distillery, once known as the smallest and most mysterious in Japan.
On the palate, it opens with dried fruit, soft sandalwood, and roasted malt—a nostalgic return to the elegant yet powerful flavor profiles of Karuizawa’s golden age. Touches of polished wood, incense, and gentle bitterness give it remarkable depth, while a long finish brings forth a signature smokiness underpinned by sherry-rich sweetness. This bottle is not merely a drink—it is a tribute to Japan’s rarest whisky lineage.

※Additional Explanation
Karuizawa whiskies are some of the most sought-after in the world—closed since 2000, their mystique grows with every passing year. While Kohaku Roman is not a product of the original Karuizawa Distillery, it draws deeply from its stylistic DNA: sherry influence, incense notes, polished wood undertones, and a contemplative finish.
Produced by Sun Foods, this expression aims to resurrect the spirit of Karuizawa-style whisky through small-batch blending and carefully selected aging methods. Though the liquid may come from newer sources, its aromatic composition and bottle presentation pay homage to the golden age of Japanese whisky—making it a meaningful experience for connoisseurs and collectors.
Often seen in limited circulation, this bottle suits quiet evenings, heartfelt gifts, or cultural display settings. It bridges modern production with nostalgic identity, a characteristic unique to the “Kohaku Roman” label.
