Matsui Mizunara Cask

Very pale fresh whisky with lychee fresh pear morning dew apple notes and just a dash of salt and white pepper. It’s a honeyed and thick dram on the palate with caramelized apples and tangerine then late bittersweet citrus that attempts to dampen down the jackhammer of pepper. Enjoyable weight texture and flavors but the mizunara signature notes are a little subtle and underplayed. (3972 bottles)
