【輕井澤 · 冨嶽三十六景 · 山下白雨（第四版）】
《山下白雨》所描繪的是雷雨將至的富士山，一般被稱為「黑富士」，是《冨嶽三十六景》中最著名的畫作之一。
夏日傍晚，每逢雷雨交加的日子，富士山就蒙上一層朦朧暗啞的灰褐色 。北齋特地把富士山呈現在一個至高的角度，讓它成為凌駕一切的主角，去掉所有人類或人工建築的存在，獨獨彰顯大自然的巍峨氣勢。
Distillery Info
Karuizawa was a small distillery, it was known for producing top-notch whisky in Japan.
The distillery exclusively used Golden Promise barley and primarily matured whisky in sherry casks. The key to Karuizawa’s success was the hidden earthiness and peatiness that gave many of their legendary single cask bottling it’s unique character.
Setting in the foothills of Mount Asama where the water source used in production has flowed through the volcanic lava rock and soil that surround the distillery, giving it a unique mineral quality. The chilly climate provided an excellent location for whiskey making. The storehouse of Karuizawa was also covered in ivy, which is said to assist in keeping the temperature and humidity at exactly the right levels for producing good whisky. Though the distillery was already closed down, there won’t be any more Karuizawa bottles in the future making each and every one more valuable.
