Kishu Kumano Distillery, established in 1969, is located in Kamitonda Town, Wakayama near the Kumano Kodo, a 2004 UNESCO registered World Heritage Site. The distillery produces craft gin, whisky, vodka, and plum liqueur.
The soft mineral water from the Tonda-gawa River is used to distill the whisky, resulting in the refined taste of whisky not seen in Scotch and Bourbon whiskeys.
Mizunara, also known as Japanese Oak, is considered a luxurious type of oak. It leaves notes of sandalwood and incense.
Hinoki, known as Japanese Cedar, leaves a milder and lighter note that pairs well with Japanese food.
