Tasting Notes
The Kurayoshi 8 Year Old is a harmonious blend of Scotch and Japanese malt whiskies, masterfully crafted by Matsui Shuzou in the picturesque Tottori Prefecture. Upon nosing, a delightful dance of toffee, red berry, and a subtle hint of violet unfolds, tantalizing the senses with its alluring bouquet. As the whisky graces the palate, a burst of pink peppercorn mingles with the zesty notes of orange peel, leading to a lingering warmth reminiscent of toasted oak. The finish is a delightful treat, as the nutty essence of macadamia nuts intertwines with the sweet caress of strawberry jam, leaving a lasting impression on the taste buds. Brought to bottling strength with volcanic-stone-filtered water, this 8-year-old blended malt whisky is a true testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of The Kurayoshi range.
