I have, in the past, had oak casks which have offered a cedar aroma…but never cedar itself! A sedate whisky but with a definite twist…” Whisky Bible 2021 Tasting Notes: KAMIKI (91.00 POINTS) ….even more cedary than their last bottling: wow much more barley prevalent, allowing a healthy gristiness to flourish before unique tannin fingerprint start to make its mark…such a different whisky. And it appears every batch has its own twist and take on matters. Fascinating…and delicious!
