Product Description

The Helios name has been a mainstay on the island of Okinawa since at least the 15th Century—first as renowned brewers and also as distillers. For centuries their specialty has been traditional shōchū, but they have more recently begun making expertly crafted rums from local sugar cane and whiskies from malted barley.

Produced in very small quantities, Kura Pure Malt Japanese Whisky combines unpeated malt whisky with a peated malt made using extremely rare peat from the northern island of Hokkaido that is similar in nature to peat found on the islands of Scotland. Both are aged in American White Oak before being finished in local rum casks that held rum for over 20 years. The result is an exceptional spirit with a remarkable smoky flavor complemented by hints of toffee and chocolate. Made in the subtropical climate of Okinawa, the permanence of this unique island imbues every sip.

— Fragrance: Sweet, light iodine, and clove
