The flavour profile is really one, to the extent, that you see only in Japan and seems to give an extra sharpness to their malt; as though the colours on the nose and palate are pastel shaded and not just water. A quite beautiful whisky, as elegant and delicate as a demure Japanese girlfriend in a flowing silk kimono. \u003c\/em\u003e48% Alc.\/Vol. Non chill filtered. \u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2020    \u003cem\u003eVery 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.\u003c\/em\u003e (3,972 bottles)  \u003cstrong\u003e90 points\u003c\/strong\u003e - whiskyadvocate.com, reviewed by: Jonny McCormick (Fall 2019)    \u003cstrong\u003eDouble Gold\u003c\/strong\u003e award at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2019","brand":"Liquorworld","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51289103565117,"sku":null,"price":239.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/5922\/5405\/files\/Matsui-Mizunara-Cask-Single-Malt-Japanese-Whisky-700ml.webp?v=1768812209","url":"https:\/\/liquorworld.com.au\/products\/matsui-mizunara-cask-single-malt-japanese-whisky-700ml","provider":"Liquor World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
