2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

The Matsui The Peated Single Malt Japanese Whisky (Japan), 48% abv, $90.00

87
Very Good,
Strong Recommendation

Tasting Note:

The smoke wafting out of the glass is demure and restrained. It is light and fleeting, rather than oily and heady. The medium-bodied whisky shows lovely golden flavors of apple, pear, and quince, all enveloped in an iodine peat smoke that drives the finish.
