This bundle contains a 200ml 2-bottle set of Prologue "W" & "K", together with a 700ml bottle of Contact S.
Shizuoka Distillery is the most important Japanese distillery you haven't heard of.
Its first bottle - the Prologue K - is made with a legendary pot still salvaged from Karuizawa: a Japanese ghost distillery of cult status. Its second bottle - the Prologue W - is made from the world's only wood-fired whisky pot still.
Its third bottle - the Contact S is - made with a blend of whisky from Pot Still "K" and whisky from Pot Still "W".
All show a level of complexity and balance that punch way above their age-class.
