Tasting Notes

Imagine sipping on a liquid that transports you to the heart of Japan's breathtaking landscapes. The Kurayoshi 12 Year Old is a harmonious blend of Scottish malts and Japanese artistry, offering a remarkable sensory journey. On the nose, zesty citrus notes of flamed orange peel and lemongrass mingle with the comforting aroma of freshly baked rye bread dough. As you indulge, the palate unveils a delightful interplay of aromatic barley, floral nuances, and a fruity core reminiscent of crisp apples and juicy white grapes. The finish lingers with a refreshing burst of lime, a hint of spicy ginger, and a subtle whiff of smoke, reminiscent of the volcanic rocks that filter the pristine water used in its creation. This harmonious blend is a true testament to the artistry of the Matsui Shuzou distillery, seamlessly blending the best of Scotland and Japan into a captivating whisky experience.
