Karuizawa Ruby Geisha 34 and 38 Year Old Set: identification and appraisal guide

A first appraisal of Karuizawa Ruby Geisha 34 and 38 Year Old Set starts with honest photos of the whisky bottle, its markings and the accessories kept with it. Locate 34 Years and 38 Years respectively on the labels of both bottles, together with a ruby geisha design in the overview before making a closer condition photograph.

Identification details

• Product name: Karuizawa Ruby Geisha 34 and 38 Year Old Set
• Visible design and wording: The labels on both bottles display 34 Years and 38 Years respectively, and feature a ruby geisha design
• Category: Japanese whisky
• Details needing clearer photographs: Each bottle's distillation year, barrel number, ABV, volume, seal, wooden box, and pairing relationships

Check the item for 34 Years and 38 Years respectively on the labels of both bottles, together with a ruby geisha design, then compare the box, booklet, certificate and purchase papers. Both should agree before the product name Karuizawa Ruby Geisha 34 and 38 Year Old Set is accepted.

Photographs and condition

Capture the visible details in photos of front and back labels, closure, fill level, bottle base, batch or cask markings, box and accessories. Take the overview first and the detail photographs from the same setup. Show both whisky bottles together before photographing each component separately.

Document fill level, closure, labels, bottle, box and any numbered accessories. Describe damage and missing accessories separately from normal wear. Record condition and packaging for each component separately.

Storage, accessories and handover

Once the images are complete, keep the bottle upright, away from heat and direct light, at a stable room temperature. Do not disturb the seal, stopper, cork or closure, and do not clean the label.

Before anything is moved, keep every bottle with its matching box, booklet, certificate and purchase documents.
