Kura The Whisky

The low ratings are from folks who don’t like peat. As a lover of Islay scotch, this is my favorite Japanese whisky.

Easily in my top three worst whiskies of all time. Up there with Few single malt (liquid manure) and lakes “the one” olorosso (melted plastic). Tasted like a stagnant puddle. It was so bad it had me in genuine fits of laughter and just how awful it is.

It was so bad....

Was excited to try this Whiskey. If you like the smell of paint thinner then this one if for you. Not a fan at all.

Drinkable, but has a sniff of paint/turps to it, a drop of water mellows this taint, but not blown away by the false advertising leading to my purchase.

Very good, smooth whiskey with a touch of sweetness I guess coming from rum barrel with a very pleasant smoke finish

Not impressed at all. Expecting more.

Very accurate low end reviews on this site, I wish I had read them instead of making this benighted spontaneous purchase at Costco. Where do I start? The nose has a strong hint of antiseptic on a band-aid and might have singed a few nostril hairs. If arsenic wasn't tasteless, I imagine this is what it would taste like. The finish might have been tantamount to rusty razors blades. My co-tasters taste buds were also inconsolable. Since Costco does not except returns on alcohol, the next time I touch this bottle might be to disinfect my toilet.

I got a bottle of this from a friend who did not like Whisky and I have to say I truly enjoyed it very much even my wife who is very picky when it comes to any type of alcohol loved it. It does have a unique taste but very smooth and we enjoyed the smooth smokyafter taste of the whisky

People given this a bad rating have no clue about peated whisky. It’s very good. Sharp clean with a little smoke.
