About the distillery
Our products are single grain. That’s special to Kumesen Distillery, because they have an Indica rice that’s unique to them that they use to make their whisky. That’s adding innovation to the category, because we hadn’t yet seen an extremely aged single-grain Japanese whisky. It’s caught the attention of connoisseurs. It’s so different but tastes very good. We’re filling in a need by bringing back more age statements and innovating in a category that hasn’t had as much innovation yet. Chita from Suntory has a single grain, but it’s not nearly as old as ours.
