Kamiki Sakura wood whisky with case

Our story takes place in a truly ancient land of spiritual and carnal harmony, in the temples of Nara in Japan. The'ancient capital of Japan, Nara is home to many temples dating back to the 8th century that lend unperturbed power to the sacred capital. The Ōmiwa Shrine in Nara is one of the oldest existing Shinto shrines in Japan. It is a protective shrine for Japanese alcohol producers. The most famous families of alcohol producers are located in Nara and these families have a centuries-old tradition of producing alcohol for Ōmiwa. The alcohol produced by these families is served as a blessing in Shinto temples. he Ōmiwa Shrine is located at the foot of Mount Miwa, a sacred mountain guarded by the shrine. Mount Miwa has many legends and has been worshipped since ancient times as a sacred mountain of the god. Inspired by the beautiful breezes coming from God Mountain, we named our whisky KAMIKI where "KAMI" means "GOD" and "IKI" means "BREATH". Kamiki is the "world's first Japanese cedar cask-finished whisky brand". Yoshino Sugi is considered the best wood for making local casks for its refreshing, fragrant flavour and wood aroma. Our blend is matured a second time in Yoshino Sugi casks to capture a perfectly smooth taste, a sandalwood scent on the nose and a green tea zest on the finish. This second maturation makes our whisky unique.
