The Kurayoshi Pure Malt Sherry Cask is a characterful Japanese whisky matured for over three years in seasoned sherry casks. Bottled at 43% ABV, it was crafted using the pristine spring waters from Mount Daisen, lending the whisky a clean, polished feel without compromising on depth.
On the nose, this expression delivers aromas of dried herbs, dried fruits, citrus and chocolate. The palate follows with a sherry-forward profile full of liquorice, dried fruit and a bright twist of lemon, creating a layered and rounded mouthfeel. The finish is well balanced, leaving a lingering hint of bitterness that keeps the dram engaging to the last.
With a growing reputation, Kurayoshi whiskies continue to earn international praise with awards such as Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2023, recognition in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2024, and high commendation at the Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2019.
