The Kujira Okinawa 5 Years Old WHITE OAK VIRGIN CASK Whisky 43% Vol. 0.7 l + GB is an exceptional Japanese whisky that combines Okinawa’s traditional art of distillation with innovative maturation methods. This whisky is 100% distilled and bottled in Okinawa, which allows it to retain its authentic regional character. Unlike most Japanese whiskies, Kujira Okinawa Whisky is made entirely from high-quality rice, giving it a particularly elegant and smooth profile. The elegant 0.7 l bottle, presented in a high-quality gift box, makes this bottling an excellent choice for lovers of Japanese whiskies and exceptional cask maturations.


Kujira Okinawa 5 Years Old is matured for more than five years in virgin white oak casks, which have never been used before and impart intense notes of vanilla, caramel and oak to the whisky. Okinawa’s subtropical climate, with its warm temperatures and high humidity, accelerates the maturation process and ensures exceptional flavour development. This results in delicate fruity and botanical nuances, as well as a particularly rich texture. At 43% ABV, this Japanese whisky is harmonious and well-balanced. Furthermore, it is non-chill-filtered and bottled without the addition of colouring, ensuring that its natural character is fully preserved.
