Matsui Whisky Kurayoshi 33 years old Pure Malt.

This is a 30 year old blended Matsui whisky from Japan. Matsui whisky has a chequered past, originally bottling what was actually imported Scotch that had been aged in Japan at the Matsui-Shuzo warehouses and using packaging suspiciously similar to Suntory products.

This rather rare bottle of 12 year old Scotch was bottles for one of Paris hot-spots: the famous art deco restaurant at Rue Royal. The juice itself was distilled prior to 1975 so we estimate this was bottled around 1987.

This McCormick has been bottled between 1977 and 1982.
