Kusu 3yrs Awamori - 720ml
Kusu 3yrs Awamori is a carefully matured spirit from Yaesen Shuzo on Ishigaki Island. Distilled using black koji mould and the traditional direct-fire method handed down through generations, it is then aged for three years to develop depth and refinement.
The result is an Awamori with a dense, almost enigmatic aroma and a mellow, lingering taste that only comes from time and patience. This release was born from a new creative challenge at Yaesen and is available in 300ml, 720ml and 1800ml bottlings. Since its introduction, it has received multiple international awards, underlining its quality and craftsmanship.
Yaesen Shuzo is part of the fabric of Ishigaki, an island rich in nature and tradition. Every drop is made with sincerity, rooted in a philosophy that blends heritage with innovation. Known for pioneering the combination of direct-fire distillation and long-term ageing in Western oak casks, Yaesen continues to create Awamori that reflects both the island’s spirit and the evolving future of Japanese distilling.
From its hilltop distillery overlooking the sea, Yaesen shares Awamori that is cherished by the islanders and enjoyed well beyond Okinawa.
