Ukiyo Japanese Rice Vodka is crafted on the tropical Okinawa Island, part of the island chain that lies between Japan’s mainland and Taiwan. It is made from a harvest of long grain indica rice distilled into a traditional Japanese Awamori spirit. This Awamori spirit is then redistilled into pure Ukiyo Rice Vodka. Unlike most vodkas, Ukiyo is not totally neutral and has a wonderfully fragrant aroma and taste.
