The Matsui Sakura Single Cask

Matsui Sakura Single Cask is a Japanese single malt whisky produced by the Kurayoshi distillery, located in Tottori Prefecture. This special edition is aged in Japanese cherry wood casks, known as "sakura," which gives the whisky unique aromatic characteristics.

On the nose, delicate notes of cherry blossom, baked apples, buttercream, and dried lemon zest emerge. On the palate, flavors of red fruit, honey, and a touch of spice unfold, offering a balanced and refined experience. The finish is smooth and lingering, with subtle hints of fresh wood and toasted almond.

Bottled at 48% ABV, Matsui Sakura Single Cask is a distinctive expression that showcases Japanese expertise in aging in native wood casks. It is recommended to enjoy it neat or with a small amount of water to fully appreciate its floral and fruity aromas.
