Nara
Kamiki Sakura Wood Whisky
Inspired by sacred Sakura Tree which symbolizes the fragility of life with its beautiful yet short lived blossoms, we have finished our Kamiki Whisky at Sakura casks after aging in Yoshino Sugi casks.
Nose: Cherry candy with ripe banana, chestnuts, and cinnamon on the nose.
Palate: Woodiness, sandalwood and gentle spice, before sweet Sakura pedals.
Finish: Spicy cherry with savoury notes, leading to a floral, spring like finish.
Kamiki Intense Wood Whisky
Kamiki is a new expression of premium Japanese style whisky blessed by Omiwa priests from Nara. Nara is the ancient capital of Japan and it holds many temples from Shinto, Tengri and Buddhist religions, which makes Nara Ā«The City of TemplesĀ».
Kamiki 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. To celebrate the timeless alcohol tradition of the region, rare Japanese malt whiskies and finest malt whiskies sourced from rest of the world are blended and later fused with the highest quality pure spring water.
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 a unique second maturation technique, while blend is rested for a second time in Yoshino Sugi āJapanese Cedar- casks to capture a perfectly smooth taste, a scent of sandalwood on the nose and a zest of green tea in the finish. This second maturation makes Kamiki; āTHE FIRST WHISKY IN THE WORLD WITH JAPANESE CEDAR CASK FINISHā!
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.
