Description

Masahiro Distillery, one of Okinawa, Japan's oldest distilleries established in 1883, has a long history of producing traditional Okinawan spirits (Awamori). This Kujira Ryukyu Whisky is crafted from 100% Indica rice and matured for over 30 years in American White Oak Casks. The tropical climate of Okinawa contributes to its unique maturation, resulting in a mellow body and rich complexity.

Nose
Rich aroma of butter, plum, vanilla, oak, and spice. Distinct notes of ripe berries, dried persimmons, caramel pudding, and sugar, with earthy tones and a starchy, rice-like characteristic. [image, 2, 5]
Palate
Sweet and mellow, with deep oak, hints of honey and spices. The rice flavor is prominent, along with wood tannins bringing a puckery sourness of Chinese herbs. [image, 2, 5]
Finish
Medium to pleasantly strong and long-lasting sweetness, with warmth, some spice, and a little dryness towards the end, retaining the deep oak and rice flavor. [image, 2, 5]
