Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

The first sip of Kamiki Blended Malt Japanese Whisky wraps you in a gentle embrace of sandalwood and honeyed malt, evoking the tranquil spirit of Nara’s ancient forests. Crafted in Japan, this whisky balances delicate notes of toasted nuts, dried fruit, and a subtle wisp of smoke that lingers gracefully on the palate. With an alcohol by volume of 48.00%, Kamiki offers both depth and elegance, making it an inspired companion for sushi or grilled eel where its umami-rich character harmonizes beautifully with fresh seafood or savory glaze. Each glass is a journey through Japanese craftsmanship and nature’s quiet complexity.
