Chichibu 2015 Heavily Peated Single Virgin Cask #4735 / Wooden Box

Chichibu distillery in Saitama, Japan was opened in 2008, and was the country’s first new distillery since Suntory opened Hakushu back in 1973. Chichibu was the brainchild of Ichiro Akuto, grandson of the founder of the legendary Hanyu distillery. The Ichiro’s Malt brand appeared in 2005 and rose to fame through the bottling of the last casks from Hanyu, particularly the sought after ‘Card’ series. The first Chichibu releases appeared under it in 2011.

This heavily-peated Chichibu was distilled in 2015 and matured in single virgin oak hogshead #4735. It was bottled in 2023 as the tenth release in the 'Cigar Series', exclusively for Takashimaya Nihombashi in Tokyo.

One of 286 bottles.
