Product Description
Hitoyoshi is surrounded by mountains and is known for its pure water and nature.
Shigeruriku Fukano is the fifth generation of his family to run the distillery. They use a combination of malted and un-malted rice to make their whisky in a pot still. These releases are very limited in nature and only a few casks are bottled each year.
Fukano was the first distillery in the Kumamoto region to mature its shochu in barrels, a novel practice spearheaded by Chizuru Fukano, the mother of current distillery president Seiichi Fukano. It’s this post-distillation wood aging that turns the fresh shochu into something more accurately classified as whisky.
Our latest Annual Edition featuring our new bottle and label design.
Fukano Select has been developed using Red Wine casks, Manzanilla Sherry casks, and new & refilled Oak casks.
