Beautiful flavors, captivating aroma. Why do people describe this taste as "beautiful"? The Fuji Gotemba Distillery was born in nature's harsh yet abundant environment.
Spring water refined by the earth over approximately 50 years. Dense fog and fresh air created by Mount Fuji's forests. In this ideal environment for whisky-making, craftsmen pass down their lifelong skills and dedication, creating these unique flavors and aromas. Mount Fuji's spring water brings us a clear taste experience. Mount Fuji's snow, purified over about 50 years, becomes high-quality spring water, flowing to the Fuji Gotemba Distillery.
It is because of this great natural blessing, that "RIKU" whisky came to be.
The craftsmen's skills perfectly showcase Fuji's natural gifts. Various base spirits fully absorb the essence of Fuji's nature.
World-class blending masters' techniques bring these charms together in perfect balance. Thus, "RIKU" whisky's elegant and layered aromas and flavors are perfectly expressed.
Pursuing flavors suited to Japanese terroir and food culture. Achieving subtle sweet aromas with clear palatability.
Whether enjoyed on the rocks, or in a delicious highball, it's exceptionally tasty. A whisky that brings you fresh palatability and beautiful aromas.
Aroma: Subtle sweet notes of yellow peach, orange, and apple. Finish: Smooth and gentle palate. Rich fruit flavors with mature aromatic depth, moderate and lasting. Palate: Fresh taste, rich in layers, with concentrated aromas.
Pursuing taste close to "cask strength," using "non-chill filtering" technology to preserve whisky's delicious components. Utilizing the essence of land-matured spirits to create a richly aromatic whisky.
During maturation, 180-liter barrels made from North American white oak are used. Small barrels increase quantity and workload, seemingly inefficient, but they increase the contact surface between spirit and wood, allowing us to fully obtain the barrel's rich aromas.
