Yutumomo Milk Candy Bourbon Whiskey - 700ml

Bourbon-based whiskey liqueur inspired by Asian milk candy, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof) in a 700ml format. It earned a Double Gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2026 and was named Flavored Whiskey of the Year by the London Spirits Competition with a score of 94 points — rare accolades for a category newcomer.

Yutumomo draws its identity from a singular concept: translating the creamy, condensed-milk sweetness of Asian milk candy into a whiskey-based spirit. Built on a bourbon foundation, the liqueur incorporates natural milk candy flavoring to achieve its distinctive confectionery profile. Notably, it contains no dairy and requires no refrigeration — a meaningful distinction from cream liqueurs like Baileys or RumChata. The specific distillery and mashbill behind the bourbon base have not been publicly disclosed by the brand. In a flavored whiskey market dominated by peanut butter, honey, and cinnamon expressions, Yutumomo occupies a lane with virtually no direct competition on American shelves.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Butterscotch and warm vanilla rise immediately from the glass, followed by a layer of caramel sweetness that recalls condensed milk straight from the can. A faint chocolate note lingers beneath, adding depth without heaviness.
