About this bottle
Kujira Ryukyu Whisky 15 Year is a blended malt whisky from Okinawa, part of the Ryukyu Whisky line named for kujira, the Japanese word for whale. It is built from malt and grain whiskies matured 15 years in oak, a warmer, more tropical maturation environment than mainland Japan's whisky regions, which tends to push flavors along faster. Expect a deep, complex profile with dried fruit, oak, and light spice on the nose, a smooth, mellow palate, and a gentle smoky note on the finish. It suits whisky drinkers curious about Japan's smaller regional distilleries beyond the well-known majors.
How to drink Kujira Ryukyu Whisky 15 Year
Take it neat or with a few drops of water to open the dried fruit notes. It also holds up on the rocks if you want a cooler, slower-sipping version on a warm evening.
