A long awaited release from Ichiro Akuto's Chichibu distillery - their first whisky, aged for three years. It was a hit at the 2011 Whisky Show and the slow boat from Japan finally deposited it on our shores in early 2012.

This is THE most impressive piece of whisky I've ever discovered. It's a shame it's out of production, as this brought a taste that I will never forget. It's a solid piece of japanese craft. My God.
Bought for my father last Xmas. He regularly mentions how much he enjoys it.
Dont let the young age scare you off, this is an incredible whisky!
