Chichibu Ichiro's Malt Double Distilleries Japanese Whisky 700ml PROFILEA vatting of single malt from the Hanyu Distillery, built by Ichiro Akuto's grandfather, with younger distillate from the Chichibu Distillery built by Ichiro himself. After Hanyu was sold in 2000 (to a Kyoto-based Shochu producer) Akuto managed to rescue a mere 400 casks of more mature Whiskey from its vaults. This bottling, then, represents a family blend of Akuto Whiskies from different generations and different distilleries. The Whiskies are vatted in Japanese Mizunara oak at Chichibu; the Hanyu material was traditionally matured in Sherry hogsheads, the Chichibu distillate was also aged in Japanese oak. The marriage is a fine one indeed, with the delicate sweetness and punchy fruit notes of the Chichibu malt dovetailing with the more barley-rich, structured Hanyu. Non-chill filtered and non-coloured. TASTING NOTES Nose: The nose is sweet with honeysuckle and red apple. It is well rounded with oak and holds a kiss of vanilla and biscuits notes. Palate: Sweet spices of cinnamon, nutmeg and a little ginger dance across your palate at first, with a warming wave of honeyed malt that follows. Licks of oak linger and create an overall silky but spicy mouthfeel. Colour: Pale Straw SERVING SUGGESTIONS
