Kurayoshi Whiskey Pure Malt 8 Year Old 700mL
Kurayoshi Whiskey Pure Malt 8 Year Old 700mL
Even the most ardent fans of Japanese whisky would be forgiven not to have heard of the Matsui distillery. Located in Tottori, a coastal prefecture on southern Honshu mostly known for its sand dunes. It is also the location of Matsui Breweries, which makes traditional Japanese sake and shochu, as well as whisky. This bottle, the Kurayoshi Pure Malt 8 Year Old is one of the finest thing this distillery has produced. We were quite impressed with this new offering, and we bet that you will be as well. And as far as we know, we are the only shop outside of Japan to stock it, and as there is only one bottle in stock, you better hurry up before it’s too late!

Matured in a Bourbon cask. Amber gold. Opens a little shy, but develops with a spicy fruity interplay (dried fruits, plums, apricots?) perhaps a touch of grapefruit, then more nutty and sweet-spicy.
ll very subtle. Silky and mellow beyond its age statement. A deft burst of spice seals the finish.
