Matsui San-In ex-Bourbon Barrel Blended Japanese Whisky [700ml]

This Matsui San-In blended whisky was created at the Kurayoshi distillery and matured in an ex-bourbon barrel that has imparted a range of sweet, fruity notes onto the lightly spiced spirit. It’s yet another delicious Matsui expression, following on from the hugely successful Mizunara bottling, that will be adored by whisky fans everywhere.

Tasting Note

The San-In Ex-Bourbon Barrel showcases Kurayoshi’s mastery in creating new and distinct flavor profiles. Matsui’s own single malt whisky and single grain whiskies sourced from an undisclosed distillery are aged in white oak ex-bourbon barrels, blended & bottled by Kurayoshi, and proofed with water from Mount Daisen. A familiar, confectionary nose of maple syrup and vanilla meet a round palate of toasted biscuit, pear, orange zest, and lemongrass. Bottled at a higher proof than the standard San-In, the extra bite is tempered by the robust finish provided by the bourbon cask.
