Matsui Single Cask 5 Year Sakura 700ml

One Cask, Five Years, Sakura Wood — Matsui Single Cask

Matsui Single Cask 5 Year Sakura is a rare single cask expression from the Kurayoshi Distillery — a whisky drawn from a single sakura (cherry blossom) wood cask after five years of maturation, bottled without blending or dilution. The sakura wood imparts a delicate, floral character that is uniquely Japanese, and the single cask format ensures that every bottle is a one-of-a-kind expression of that specific cask's character.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Delicate and floral. Sakura blossom leads with a youthful malt character, a gentle fruit note, and a clean, distinctive Japanese character.
• Palate: Light and elegant. Floral sakura and young malt interplay with a gentle sweetness and a clean, refreshing complexity.
• Finish: Clean and floral. Sakura sweetness lingers with a delicate, single cask close.
