Yuzuri Yuzu Liqueur
About Yuzuri Yuzu Liqueur
Yuzuri is a citrus liqueur handcrafted from Japanese Yuzu, 100% locally grown rice, and pristine, local groundwater. Akin to the brand’s expertly crafted Kikori Whiskey, Yuzuri was born out of a desire to find balance in all things… family, work, play, spirituality and, of course, extraordinary spirits.

Production Notes
Yuzuri takes a page from the smooth drinkability and balanced flavors of Kikori Whiskey, using only spirits distilled from the same locally grown rice and pristine groundwater on the island of Kyushu in Southern Japan. Yuzuri Yuzu Liqueur is an equally distinct potable that’s matchless in both essence and taste.
