Kujira is a Ryukyu (Okinawa) whisky brand made by Masahiro Distillery, distilled from 100% Indica rice and native black koji. The 5‑year-old expression gains richness and depth thanks to the island’s warm, humid climate, giving it a smooth, fruity, woody character.
This whisky offers a rare and innovative take on Japanese whisky-making, using rice fermentation with black Koji yeast to create a smooth, slightly umami depth. The sherry cask maturation enriches its sweet and fruity complexity, making it a standout choice for those exploring new whisky profiles.
