Who we are
Japanese Inspired, Oregon Crafted.
SHIZEN (自然) crafts premium spirits that unite Japanese inspiration with Oregonian craftsmanship. Our name, SHIZEN translates to nature, and reflects our core philosophy: natural ingredients, intentional craftsmanship, and minimalist elegance.
Our Philosophy & Vision
In our world, true luxury isn't loud. It’s found in the quiet, the subtle, and the space between. We are guided by the Japanese ideals of Ma—the beauty of empty space—and Shibui, an unobtrusive beauty that reveals its depth over time.
This philosophy guides every bottle. We don’t create spirits to be lost in a cocktail. We craft them to be found. Each one is a quiet invitation to slow down and discover a delicate, complex flavor that unfolds on the palate. This is a spirit for those who appreciate the beauty of restraint.
Our Products
We craft premium vodka and gin using zero additives, relying on nature to create delicate flavors. Our initial offerings include a Vodka and Yuzu Vodka.
Our Founders
Shizen was born from a shared passion between its founders. They set out to capture the spirit of two places they love—the minimalist precision of Japan and the abundant craft of Oregon. Together, their expertise in product innovation and community is united by a single vision: to bridge two cultures in a bottle.
