Oaksmith, India’s pioneering international blended whisky brand, proudly introduces Oaksmith Nagomi—its most premium and refined expression to date. Blending the depth of aged Scotch malts, the smoothness of American bourbons, and the meticulous artistry of Japanese blending, Nagomi sets a new benchmark in Indian whisky craftsmanship.
Named after the Japanese philosophy of ‘Nagomi’, meaning harmony and balance, this new expression embodies the spirit of bringing diverse influences together in perfect unison. It is crafted by Shinji Fukuyo, Chief Blender at Suntory and recipient of the Master Blender of the Year award at the 2024 International Spirits Challenge—adding further prestige to this exceptional launch.
Rishi Walli, Senior Director – Marketing & IMFL Brands, Suntory Global Spirits, remarked:
“With Oaksmith Nagomi, we are not merely launching a new whisky—we are elevating the Indian whisky category. Nagomi is a tribute to those who seek a sophisticated and globally inspired whisky experience. It reflects our deep-rooted Japanese legacy, fused with global whisky traditions, to create a spirit that is both aspirational and authentically crafted. This marks a significant new chapter in the Oaksmithr journey.”
Oaksmith Nagomi is a multi-sensory experience, tailored to the evolving Indian palate. It features a rich golden hue, layered aromas of smoke, spice, and fruit, and a full-bodied profile underscored by woody notes from carefully selected oak casks. The finish is smooth, bright, and lingering—true to the brand’s promise of harmony in every sip.
The bottle design, inspired by Japanese minimalism, exudes strength and simplicity, echoing the elegance of the whisky it holds. Crafted to resonate with modern Indian consumers who appreciate authenticity and sophistication, Nagomi stands out as a contemporary classic.
Initially available in Goa and West Bengal, Oaksmith® Nagomi will soon roll out to additional markets across India. With this new expression joining Oaksmith International and Oak-smith Gold, the brand continues to bring together Japanese precision and global whisky-making excellence to cater to India’s rapidly growing premium whisky segment.
This launch marks a defining milestone in Oaksmith’s evolution—offering discerning consumers a truly elevated alternative within the IMFL landscape and reinforcing the brand’s leadership in shaping India’s modern whisky narrative.
