Kikori Whiskey

Kikori is a Japanese whiskey made entirely from rice — aged over 3 years in a combination of American oak, French Limousin oak, and Sherry casks for a smooth, floral, and delicate character.

Distilled from 100% rice rather than the barley or grain used in most whiskey, Kikori has a lighter, more refined profile that sets it apart. The multi-cask aging — American oak, French Limousin oak, and Sherry casks — adds layers of floral, fragrant aroma and a velvety texture over the rice base.

It is smooth enough to enjoy neat or on the rocks, and its delicate character makes for a distinctive highball or cocktail.
