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.
