Matsui Whisky THE KURAYOSHI 12 Years Old is an outstanding pure malt whisky from Japan, produced at the Kurayoshi distillery in Tottori Prefecture, renowned for its tradition in whisky. This whisky is matured for 12 years in a combination of American oak casks, sherry casks and Mizunara oak casks, giving it remarkable depth and complexity. Mizunara oak, typical of Japanese whiskies, brings out unique flavours of exotic spices and woody notes that set the whisky apart from others.
With an alcohol content of 43%, the Matsui Kurayoshi 12 year old is both strong and velvety, with a perfect balance between sweet, spicy and woody notes. The elegant gift box (GB) makes this whisky an ideal gift for whisky connoisseurs and collectors or as a special addition to any whisky collection.
