Yamazakura

KAIJIN means “Sailor” in Japanese. Masahiro Shuzo's “KAIJIN Whiskey” embodies the spirit of Japan's most honest craftsmanship, just as the “KAIJIN” that “fights” in the majestic ocean is a stalwart cultural symbol of Okinawa.

This unique whiskey is made by blending grain whiskey and aged single malt whiskey, using techniques the company has used for over 140 years since its founding in 1883. The rich yet light-bodied flavor and exotic aroma are reminiscent of the tropics and They provide a harmonious touch with an elegant finish.
