Kamiki Sakura Wood Whisky - Kamiki Drinks
€65.00
Kamiki Sakura Wood Whisky is an exceptional blended Japanese whisky from the Kamiki Drinks Company. The base whiskies are sourced from the finest malt whiskies in Japan and from the rest of the world and fused with the highest quality pure mountain spring water from Japan. After blending the whisky has matured in 3 different types of casks – first oak tree, then cedar tree and finally sakura (cherry) tree. On the nose it brings ripe banana, candied chestnuts, cinnamon and hints of pine. It has a taste of sandalwood and gentle spice, before sweet cherries cut through the more savory notes, leading to a floral, spring-like finish.

The Kamiki name is derived from the Miwa Mountain (Mountain of God), which is protected by Omiwa Priests. Inspired by beautiful breezes coming from Miwa, the whisky is named KAMIKI, where KAMI means God and IKI means breath. Also the Kamiki whisky production is protected by Omiwa Temple priests. Omiwa is one of the oldest extant Shinto shrine in Japan over thousand years old and protecting local alcohol producers ever since.
The Omiwa Temple is located in Nara, the city of temples in Japan. The mountains around Nara is covered with dense Yoshino Sugi (Japanese Cedar) forests. Yoshino Sugi is used to build temples, burnt in temples to calm mind and to age local alcohol products. Kamiki uses Yoshino Sugi casks to give to the whisky a smooth taste, a scent of sandalwood on the nose and a zest of green tea in the finish.
