Highlight
Kujira 5 Years Old is a Japanese whisky from Okinawa distilled with 100% premium Indica rice and aged for over five years in virgin white oak casks. Its profile combines caramel, vanilla, liquorice, oak and spice with a smooth and honeyed texture. A compelling reference for discovering the character of Ryukyu rice whisky.

History and character
Masahiro Shuzo has worked in Okinawa since 1883 and has brought the local knowledge of fermentation and distillation developed within Ryukyu culture to the world of whisky. Kujira embodies that regional identity with a contemporary and precise approach.
Kujira 5 Years expresses a different kind of elegance: less centred on oak austerity and more on the smoothness born of rice, black koji and maturation under the Okinawa sun.
