Description

Distilled in 2010 and matured in a Chibidaru, a Japanese quarter cask, for 4 years before bottling in 2014. The Chichibu distillery was opened by Ichiro Akuto in 2008 and already has a reputation for releasing delicious young whiskies. Limited to only 6,200 bottles this is # 5838/6200.

Note: Box has slight wear

Noes: Scents of flower, vanilla, brandy soaked raisin, fruit cake, cocoa and creme brulee. Not overly sweet but all in perfect harmony with dose of ashy. Well rounded and firm.

Palate: Absolutely delicious, mango, banana on a layer of soft young wood. Direct and forward, creamy and rich flavour balanced with good strength. 

Finish: Smooth with medium length, pleasantly throat clinching with fine syrup.
