Umiki Ocean-Fused Whisky
Discover Umiki Ocean-Fused Whisky, a Japanese-inspired blend using purified ocean water and Japanese pine barrel finishing.
About this expression
Umiki draws on two elements of Japanese coastal nature: the sea and the pine tree. The brand describes blending pure desalinated ocean water with Japanese malt whisky and imported grain whisky, alongside finishing in Japanese pine barrels.
“Ocean-fused” is the brand’s description of the process. It is not a geographic guarantee that all grain or malt whisky in the bottle was distilled in Japan. This distinction keeps the account of the product precise for international readers.
