ONIKISHI Japanese Whisky "Demon Knight" is a blended Japanese whisky that combines inspiration from deep-rooted Japanese tradition with a modern approach to flavor and style. The name Onikishi itself is derived from the words “Oni” – demon – and “Kishi” – knight, which aptly captures the character of this whisky. It makes a bold, confident, yet elegant impression, emphasizing the harmony of sweeter notes, wood, and a fresh citrus finish.
The whisky is aged in a combination of three types of casks: Japanese Mizunara oak (sandalwood, coconut, exotic spices), ex-bourbon casks (sweetness and smoothness), and new casks (structure and strength). This gives it a complex and balanced flavor profile.
