Kikori Japanese Whiskey 750ml

Japan's Rice Whisky — Kikori from Kumamoto

Kikori — meaning "woodcutter" in Japanese — is a Japanese whisky made from 100% rice, distilled in Kumamoto Prefecture and aged in a combination of American oak, French Limousin oak, and sherry casks. Rice gives Kikori a uniquely light, delicate character that is unlike any barley or grain whisky — a whisky that bridges the world of sake and Scotch in a way that only Japan could produce.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Delicate and clean. Rice sweetness leads with a gentle vanilla note, a subtle floral character, and a clean, uniquely Japanese profile.
• Palate: Light and elegant. Rice sweetness and oak interplay with a gentle vanilla and a clean, refreshing complexity.
• Finish: Clean and light. Rice sweetness fades with a delicate, satisfying close.
