Matsui The Kurayoshi 8 Year Old is a Japanese blended malt made entirely from malted barley. Scotch malt whiskies are married with malt distilled at Kurayoshi in Tottori, and the blend is proofed with Mount Daisen spring water. It spends a minimum of 8 years in ex-bourbon white oak barrels. It is bottled at 43% in a 70cl bottle, non-chill filtered and without caramel colouring. The tasting notes describe ripe, sweet fruit on the nose, then candied nuts, raisin and vanilla on a very soft palate. The finish is medium to long, with toffee and light oak.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
