Description
Looking for a Japanese whisky that pushes the boundaries of wood maturation with bold, unapologetic character?
As a certified spirits specialist at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store, I can confidently say Kamiki Intense Wood represents a fascinating departure from conventional Japanese whisky. This Premium expression undergoes an innovative multiple wood finishing process that layers complexity upon complexity. Unlike the delicate floral notes found in our Kamiki Sakura Wood Finish, the Intense Wood variant delivers pronounced spice and deeper oak influence. For those exploring Japanese whisky, this sits beautifully alongside crowd-pleasers like Nikka Days Japanese Blended.
• Distillery: Premium – Kamiki Distillery utilizing traditional Japanese craftsmanship with innovative wood maturation techniques
• Region: International – combining Japanese precision with global wood sourcing for unique flavor profiles
• ABV: 40% – balanced strength allowing the intricate wood spices to shine without overwhelming the palate
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Finished in multiple Japanese wood types including Yoshino cedar and mizunara oak
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals sandalwood incense and cinnamon bark. Palate delivers warming ginger, clove, and dark chocolate with resinous wood tannins. Finish lingers with peppery spice and dried fruit
• Best Served: Neat at room temperature in a Glencairn glass, or with a single ice sphere to open aromatic compounds
Our spirits specialists at Mr. Chow’s Liquor have found this expression particularly compelling for enthusiasts who appreciate wood-forward profiles and spice-driven complexity. After evaluating hundreds of Japanese expressions, this stands out for its unapologetic intensity while maintaining characteristic Japanese refinement.
Ideal for: Whisky collectors seeking distinctive bottles, sophisticated corporate gifts, or CNY celebrations with discerning guests. Pairs with: Rich Malaysian cuisine including beef rendang, duck char siu, and aged cheeses. Recommended for: Adventurous drinkers who enjoy bold spirits—gin enthusiasts might also explore our Nikka Coffey Gin for Japanese distilling excellence.
