Ohishi Distillery
大石酒造場
Ohishi Shuzo Co., Ltd.
A small, family owned Kumamoto based producer known for unique rice based whisky and shochu. Ohishi is a genuinely artisanal operation that uses locally grown rice and traditional techniques. Their products occupy a niche space: not traditional barley malt whisky, but something uniquely Japanese. The community appreciates Ohishi for its authenticity and distinctiveness even if the products are unconventional.
