Tasting Notes

• The Peated
• Sakura Cask
• Mizunara Cask

• Katsushika Hokusai’s “The great wave” Packing a potent peat punch, this bottling leaves a hale and hearty aftertaste, even among Matsui whiskies. We feel the force and majesty of the waves in this Ukiyo-e artwork reflects the spirit of our peated offering, hence why we chose it for our label. Aesthetically pleasing and delicious, this Matsui whisky is a work of pride.

• Kikukawa Eizan’s “Beauty in the Cherry blossom Garden” The artist, Kikukawa Eizan, portrayed Japanese women of strength and grace in his ukiyo-e masterpiece, which we believe was a great fit for the sakura cask which also possesses an underlying strength of flavor and a sweet aroma.

• Katsushika Hokusai’s masterpiece, “Thirty six views of mount Fuji”. In this classic artwork, the wondrous Mount Fuji is depicted with red-crowned cranes, native to Japan. We believe this iconic image matches the oriental taste of our Mizunara cask whisky. Along with a refreshing after taste, you can enjoy this classic image of Japan on our label.
