時代を超えて愛される、確かな一本。

大石ウイスキーを代表する「シェリーカスク 8年」は、長年にわたり親しまれてきた定番の味わいです。

地元で育てられた米と球磨川の清らかな水を使用し、厳選されたシェリー樽で8年間じっくりと熟成。濃厚なドライフルーツ、甘やかなバニラ、繊細な花の香りに、シナモンとほのかなタバコのニュアンスが重なり、滑らかで調和のとれた余韻へと続きます。

8年の熟成。六代にわたり受け継がれてきた職人の技。

大石ウイスキーならではの味わいを、米国内の取扱店でぜひお楽しみください。

Smoke meets tradition.

Our Islay Cask is where Japanese rice wh**ky embraces the unmistakable influence of Islay peat—creating a balance of soft fruit, gentle sweetness, and lingering coastal smoke that’s unlike anything else in the category.

If you’ve been curious about peated wh**ky or are looking for a new perspective on it, this is the bottle to seek out this week.

Every cask tells a different story. This one bridges two wh**ky worlds.

Not every cask leaves an impression. This one leaves a memory.

The Ohishi Sakura Cask is a celebration of Japan itself.

Patiently matured in ex-brandy casks before a delicate finishing period in rare Japanese Sakura wood, it reveals a profile unlike any other—soft florals, gentle spice, ripe orchard fruit, honeyed sweetness, and an elegant finish that lingers long after the last sip.

Sakura represents fleeting beauty. A reminder that the finest moments are meant to be appreciated while they're here.

This isn't simply a different cask finish.
It's a different perspective on wh**ky.

Have you experienced the Sakura Cask yet?

From above, it looks untouched.

But look closer and you’ll find the heart of it all.

A valley shaped by the Kuma River. Mist hanging over the mountains. Rice fields, winding roads, aging warehouses, and a distillery that has quietly refined its craft for generations.

Every detail matters here. The water. The climate. The people. The patience.

At the center of it all is sixth-generation master distiller Kazunori Oishi — carrying forward a family legacy while allowing this remarkable place to speak through every bottle.

This is more than where Ohishi Wh**ky is made. This is why it tastes the way it does.

Get ready. Something NEW is arriving .

The Kuma River isn’t just part of the landscape here in Mizukami Village—it’s part of every bottle we create.

Flowing from the mountains of Kumamoto through the heart of the Kuma Valley, these pristine waters have sustained local communities, agriculture, and craftsmanship for generations. For Ohishi Distillery, the river provides the pure water that plays a vital role throughout our production, helping shape the character, texture, and balance found in every expression.
Its influence can be seen from above, heard from the distillery grounds, and experienced in every sip.

The story of Ohishi begins in the valley, but it flows from the Kuma River.

Some bottles simply hit different when a new week begins.

Ohishi Wh**ky Tokubetsu Reserve is more than just a bottle on the shelf — it’s a reflection of generations of craftsmanship, patience, and the spirit of Mizukami-mura, Japan. “Tokubetsu” translates to “special,” and every pour reminds us exactly why.

A blend bringing together whiskies aged across multiple decades, built from estate-grown rice, pristine Kuma River water, and traditions passed through generations, this release continues to stand as one of the crown jewels of the Ohishi lineup.

Smooth. Layered. Thoughtful.
The kind of wh**ky that slows the world down for a moment.

Who here is already a fan of Tokubetsu Reserve?

And who’s most fascinated by the story behind the bottle itself?

There are moments in a glass you don’t rush.

Ohishi Sakura Cask is one of them.

Finished in rare cherry blossom wood, this expression brings a delicate, almost fleeting elegance to our rice wh**ky — soft florals, gentle sweetness, and a whisper of spice carried on a silky texture.
It’s not loud.
It doesn’t need to be.

This is a study in subtlety — where tradition, time, and a uniquely Japanese cask come together in quiet harmony.
A pour to slow down with.
A pour to notice.
