THE MATSUI SAKURA SINGLE CASK Japanese Whisky 48% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

The Matsui Whisky THE MATSUI Single Malt SAKURA Single Cask with 48% abv and 0.7 liter content is an exclusive single cask bottling from the Kurayoshi Distillery in Tottori Prefecture, Japan. The distillery is known for its high-quality single malts, which are often matured in unusual cask types and combine the traditional character of Japanese whisky art with innovative approaches.

This special Single Cask Edition matured entirely in sakura wooden casks (Japanese cherry blossom). This rare cask type gives the whisky a delicate floral sweetness, gentle spicy notes and an elegant, slightly fruity character. Each bottle comes from a single cask, is numbered and is bottled uncolored and unchill-filtered to preserve the authentic flavor.

The Matsui Sakura Single Cask not only tastes special but is also a collector's item, as these cask bottlings are produced in strictly limited quantities.

Tasting notes:

Color: Light gold with warm rosé nuances.

Nose: Delicate floral notes of cherry blossom, honey, vanilla, white peach, light malt, and a hint of oak spice.

Palate: Smooth and harmonious, with sweet malt, creamy vanilla, ripe stone fruits, light cinnamon spice, and floral accents.

Finish: Medium-long, smooth, and floral with a subtle wood note.

The Matsui Sakura Single Cask is best enjoyed neat to fully experience the delicate aromas of the cherry wood aging. It pairs perfectly with sushi or sashimi, mild cheeses, white chocolate, or light fruit desserts like peach tart. It also unfolds its unique character as a meditative treat in a quiet atmosphere, such as on a special occasion or as part of a Japanese whisky tasting.
