Product details
Kujira Ryukyu Whiskey Inari draws inspiration from Inari, the Japanese deity associated with rice cultivation, reflecting a deep connection to Japan’s agricultural heritage and the ingredient at the heart of this distinctive expression. Crafted from carefully selected, high-quality barrels of Ryukyuan whiskey, each component is hand-selected by the master blender according to its maturation period. This thoughtful selection and blending process brings together different layers of character, creating a harmonious balance between aroma and flavor while highlighting the distinctive identity of Kujira Ryukyu Whiskey.
On the nose, Kujira Ryukyu Whiskey Inari opens with notes of apples, pears, tropical fruits, and subtle spice. The palate develops delicate oak alongside figs, nuts, and butterscotch, creating a layered yet refined profile. Its finish is sweet and long, with pleasant fruity and herbal aromas complemented by a gentle woody texture. The combination of fruit-forward notes, oak character, and lingering sweetness gives this expression a distinctive and well-balanced profile.
