Ryujin Single Malt Japanese Whisky Bourbon Cask by Nirasaki Distillery

The Japanese dragon is a formidable entity revered for its mastery over water and rain. These dragons are believed to bring good fortune and embody power, strength, and authority, often displaying human-like emotions and experiences. Among the most significant of these dragons is Ryūjin, the sea deity in Japanese mythology. Ryūjin epitomizes the vast power of the ocean and is considered a patron of Japan. Given the critical role of the sea and seafood in Japanese life, Ryūjin holds a central place in Japanese culture and history, and is even regarded as one of the progenitors of the Japanese imperial dynasty.

Aged in ex-bourbon casks, this bold and vibrant spirit begins with the scent of bourbon on the nose, balanced against bright grain and citrus, with a medium body offering flavors of graham cracker, vanilla, and mandarin orange. Crafted by Nirasaki Distillery in Japan.

This deep reverence for Ryūjin inspired the Ryūjin Japanese Whisky Bourbon Cask Finish. This exceptional whisky not only captures the essence of the dragon's bold and vibrant spirit but also features the Golden Dragon Edition bottle. This beautifully ornate bottle is crafted in the shape of a golden dragon and adorned with intricate reliefs depicting figures from Japanese culture and mythology. It serves as a stunning display piece and a captivating conversation starter.

Flavor Profile: Light and delicate on the palate, with soft notes of graham cracker, vanilla, and mandarin orange and an oaky depth.
