The Kyushu Whisky Co., Ltd
Japan
The Kyushu Whisky Co., Ltd was founded in 2023 with a mission to celebrate and elevate the timeless craft of Japanese whisky. Steered by founder Daniel Saw and supported by a highly skilled team of industry experts, the company focuses on creating distinctive whisky expressions that reflect the character and diversity of Japan’s regions.
As an own label whisky producer and brand owner, The Kyushu Whisky Co., Ltd works in close collaboration with established and historic Japanese distilleries located in Yamanashi and Miyazaki. Through these partnerships, the company develops innovative variants and masterful blends that balance tradition with a modern perspective on whisky craftsmanship.
Each expression is produced using pristine spring water sourced from the natural surroundings of the partner distilleries. The production process honours time-honoured Japanese whisky-making techniques while embracing innovation, with maturation taking place in carefully selected sherry, bourbon, and American oak casks to build depth, complexity, and character.
With a strong commitment to craftsmanship, innovation, and the natural beauty of Japan, The Kyushu Whisky Co., Ltd represents a new generation of Japanese whisky brands, offering an elevated and contemporary interpretation of a globally admired spirit.
