THE WHISKY
The Pure Malt Whisky The Kurayoshi '8 Years Old' by Matsui Whisky is a blended single malt aged for at least 8 years in barrels that previously contained bourbon whisky and bottled at a classic 43% vol. It has a bouquet of beautiful initial floral notes that then give way to vanilla and fruit. On the palate, notes of citrus, toasted oak, vanilla, and ginger. A short-lasting finish with notes of toasted almonds, honey, ginger, and green grass.
THE DISTILLERY
The Matsui Distillery is located on the coast of the Prefecture of Tottori – in the southern area of Honshu Island – well known for its sandy dunes. The whiskies produced by Matsui are distilled with pure spring water from the Daisen Mountains. The production of Matsui is small and artisanal, and the available stocks of Kurayoshi Whisky are very limited. This makes this collection particularly sought after and valuable.
