Kujira Ryukyu Whisky Gift Set showcases the craftsmanship of Masahiro Distillery, one of Okinawa’s oldest producers with a history dating back to 1883. Unlike traditional Japanese whiskies made from barley, Kujira is distilled from 100% premium Indica rice and aged in oak barrels, creating a distinctive profile rooted in the island’s unique climate and heritage. This innovative approach blends centuries of awamori-making tradition with modern whisky expertise, resulting in a spirit that stands apart within the Japanese whisky category.

The gift set highlights Kujira’s elegance and exclusivity, often featuring its acclaimed age-statement whiskies that have been matured in carefully selected bourbon, sherry, or wine casks. Okinawa’s subtropical climate accelerates maturation, imparting deep complexity, rich oak influence, and a smooth, rounded texture. Presented in a beautifully designed package with refined bottle aesthetics, the Kujira Ryukyu Whisky Gift Set makes an exceptional choice for collectors, whisky enthusiasts, or as a distinguished gift. It is both a celebration of Japanese innovation and a showcase of Okinawa’s unique whisky identity.

Taste Notes & Food Pairings

Tasting Notes

Kujira Ryukyu Whisky offers a smooth, layered profile shaped by its rice base and aging in virgin oak casks under Okinawa’s subtropical climate. The nose opens with rich caramel, honey, and tropical fruit notes, accented by vanilla and gentle spice. On the palate, it delivers buttery sweetness, roasted wood, and dark fruit, balanced by pepper, clove, and a touch of coastal minerality. The finish is long and warming, with lingering spice, oak dryness, and subtle sweetness that reflect both its craftsmanship and unique environment.

Food Pairings

This whisky pairs beautifully with grilled seafood such as scallops, prawns, or miso-glazed cod, where its oak and spice complement umami depth. It also works well with roasted pork belly, teriyaki beef, or duck, enhancing savory richness with tropical fruit and caramel tones. Cheese pairings include aged gouda, parmesan, or creamy blue cheese, balancing salty sharpness with whisky sweetness. For dessert, it shines with dark chocolate, chestnut cake, or caramelized pineapple, echoing both its spice and fruit notes.
