The Kurayoshi Pure Malt Sherry Cask Whisky (700mL)
The Kurayoshi Pure Malt Sherry Cask Whisky (700mL)

From a little known distillery in Japan by the name of Matsui. The distillery is located in southern Honshu in the coastal prefecture of Tottori. The whiskies are young, green and fresh which is very apt for the picturesque location. Given the only 3 year approximate age of this whisky, there is an amazing array of flavour and complexity.

Tasting notes

Nose

Dried cranberries, stewed strawberries and dark chocolate. The earthy cacao nib notes almost envelope your nose. A touch of freshness from lemongrass and sweet orange peels cuts through.

Taste

Fruity sherry notes quickly disappear into a roasted hazelnut and vanilla body. Some vibrant green grassy undertones.

Finish

A dry spicy finish of warming ginger and cloves with a hint of menthol freshness.

First Time

I responded to a number of reviews and had high hopes for this Whisky, it was ok but not what I had hoped. A bit harsh for my liking.
