The San-In is the blended whiskey range from Kurayoshi Distillery. It is composed of two references.
The aging of The San-In in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels during 3 years gives it freshness as well as a fruity side. It is a whisky very rich in aroma. The annual temperature is high which contributes effectively to the aging process. The pure underground water of the Daisen Mountain gives a soft and mellow taste to this light and refreshing whisky.

Kurayoshi Distillery
Located in the town of the same name in Tottori prefecture, has been producing Japanese spirits since 1910. Sake, shochu and brandy enabled this micro-distillery to develop unique expertise combining tradition with innovation. The distillery’s proximity to Mount Daisen means that it can draw on fresh water from this mountain’s generous snowfall. Whiskies from the Kurayoshi distillery have consistently impressed the judging panels of various international competitions and won numerous awards, in particular those based on exacting blind tastings. The Kurayoshi distillery’s production levels are low and stocks are very limited.
