Matsui Kurayoshi Sherry Cask 700ml
The Kurayoshi Sherry Cask is a refined blended malt crafted by Matsui Shuzou Distillery in Japan, a producer renowned for sake, shochu, and whisky. This elegant expression combines carefully selected Scotch malt whiskies with Japanese whisky, harmoniously aged and finished in sherry casks for added depth. The result is a smooth, layered dram with notes of dried fruits, nuts, and warm spices – a whisky that bridges Scottish tradition with Japanese artistry.
