Onikishi "Deadly Sakura" - Cherry Blossom Japanese Whisky 43% | 700 ml

Elegance in Japanese style - the delicacy of sakura in every drop

Onikishi Deadly Sakura is an exceptional Japanese whiskey that combines the delicate beauty of sakura blossoms with the demonic power of the Onikishi brand. Its name refers to the legend of the "deadly sakura" - a flower that is as beautiful as it is dangerous. This whiskey is finished in sakura wood barrels, which gives it a unique floral aroma, slightly sweet taste and refined character. It is intended for lovers of more delicate and elegant whiskeys who appreciate uniqueness, story and design.

Onikishi Brand Story
The name Onikishi was created by combining two Japanese words:
Oni = demon
Kishi = knight

The brand is inspired by the demonic samurai – a mythical creature that transfers its power and honor into every drop of whiskey. Onikishi brings a unique connection of Japanese mythology, tradition and modern blending art. In contrast to the more robust Demon Knight whiskey, Deadly Sakura shows a softer, feminine, but equally strong side of the brand. The whiskey is produced in Japan in the Hyogo and Kyoto regions – areas known for their pure water, artisanal tradition and spiritual depth.

Barrel maturation and production
Deadly Sakura is matured in special sakura blossom barrels (3-6 months), which is an extremely rare procedure in Japanese whiskey. The result is a delicate, floral and refreshing taste that you will not find in any other product in this category.
