With his superbly unique expressions in his tasting notes, the Whisky Bible has become an event where the international spirits industry pays close attention.

Excerpts from the tasting notes

━ "a nose to melt a thousand hearts… So soft…and has the magical ability to allow both the oak and the malt itself to express themselves individually and then together."

━ "The most Japanese of Japanese malts with its own unique signature."

━ "The most complex whisky I have sampled this year so far (and this is number 1,058 - and took me over 90 minutes to nose and taste!) – and a definite contender for World Whisky of the Year."

This award-winning Japanese whisky "Matsui Mizunara Single Cask" is matured and bottled from one single Japanese Mizunara oak barrel, which makes this significantly rare.

It scheduled to go on sale as a limited release with limited quantity. More information will be announced on our official website and social media accounts.
