Kamiki Sakura Wood Finish [500ML]

Description

Looking for a Japanese whisky that captures the ephemeral beauty of cherry blossom season in every sip?

Kamiki Sakura Wood Finish represents a masterful innovation in Japanese whisky craftsmanship. This Premium expression undergoes a unique finishing process in casks made from Sakura—Japanese cherry wood—imparting delicate floral notes that distinguish it from conventional oak-aged whiskies. Unlike the bold intensity of Kamiki Intense Wood or the everyday approachability of Nikka Days Japanese Blended, this bottling offers a refined, springtime character that appeals to both whisky connoisseurs and those seeking something genuinely distinctive.

• Distillery: Premium – utilizing traditional Japanese distillation methods with innovative wood finishing
• Region: International – embodying Japanese precision and seasonal aesthetics
• ABV: 40% – perfectly balanced for appreciating the delicate Sakura wood influence without overpowering the palate
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Finished in Sakura cherry wood casks, adding subtle floral complexity
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals cherry blossom petals with hints of vanilla and light malt. The palate delivers smooth honey sweetness, delicate sakura florals, and gentle spice. Finish lingers with soft wood tannins and whispers of spring blossoms
• Best Served: Neat at room temperature in a tulip-shaped glass, or with a single ice sphere to gradually open the floral aromatics
