The 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. Also the Kamiki whisky 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.
The Omiwa Temple is located in Nara, the city of temples in Japan. The mountains around 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 Yoshino Sugi casks to give to the whisky a smooth taste, a scent of sandalwood on the nose and a zest of green tea in the finish.
