Kamiki Whisky has launched OakPacker Whiskey, an American single malt whiskey infused with air-harvested water for the purpose of focusing on sustainability.
The American single malt whiskey uses air-harvested water to reduce reliance on traditional sources and promote sustainability, the brand said. OakPacker uses ‘innovative’ technology to collect pure, clean water directly from the atmosphere. The non-chill-filtered whiskey is made from the ‘finest American single malt whiskeys’.
This American single malt is the world’s first spirit to implement this process.
The moniker “OakPacker” was chosen in an attempt to honor squirrels’ roles in growing oak trees. Squirrels are known to bury acorns in the ground, yielding new oak trees for future barrels.
OakPacker has tasting notes of spice-roasted pecans, candied ginger, marzipan, carrot cake, allspice, baked fruit, and Italian biscotti. The finish is said to have milk-chocolate qualities, as well as toasted walnuts and fruit jam. The whiskey clocks in at 46% ABV.
