Bearface Whiskey Unveils Their Newest Expression, The Matsutake 01

Bursts of umami paired with notes of cinnamon and baking spices makes for an incredible tasting experience

Last week, BEARFACE Whiskey announced the release of the Matsutake 01 which is the Unites States’ debut into the BEARFACE Wilderness Series.  And to celebrate, BEARFACE hosted an intimate seated dinner at Sunday in Brooklyn.  Guests of this event were served an incredible three course meal that was then paired with BEARFACE Whiskey craft cocktails as well as the new Matsutake 01 expression served neat.

 This incredible expression is infused with wild Matsutake mushrooms which instill a distinct umami finish to the whiskey.  These matsutake mushrooms are abundance in Vancouver where this expression was first conceived.  And after experimenting with different parts of the wilderness and different foraged ingredients, the Matsutake 01 was created.  Along with the incredible umami notes that you start with, the whiskey is also layered with notes of cinnamon and caramel that helps balance the earthy warmness from this expression.

BEARFACE Matsutake Whisky presents at 42.5% ABV and the new release is available now at select retailers in  CA/CO/FL/IL/IN/NY/TN/TX/WA at SRP $44.99 for 750ml. For more information on BEARFACE Whisky visit their website at https://us.bearfacewhisky.com/the-wilderness-series-matsutake/

ABOUT BEARFACE CANADIAN WHISKY

BEARFACE works with the wilderness and its powerful natural elements to transform our whisky into something more wild and adventurous through Elemental Aging. Elemental Aging is our unique process where hand-selected oak casks are matured in repurposed shipping containers and exposed to the elements in the Canadian wilderness. The unique Canadian rules about whisky-making mean there is no better place on earth to innovate, experiment and create the unexpected. Master Blender, Andrés Faustinelli, creates smoothness, balance, long complexity of flavor and gentle spice that we all love. Each year brings different nuances that can never be quite exactly the same, but exploring the subtleties is part of the adventure. BEARFACE is made in the wild, not in a lab.
