Chichibu 2011 Single Coedonado Beer Cask Finish #3302 / Spirits Shop' Selection

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 Chichibu was distilled in 2011 and initislly matured in a boutbon barrel, then finished in single Coedonado beer cask #3302. Coedonado beer is a dark strong ale, the result of a collaboration between Coedo brewery in Japan and Coronado on the American West Coast. It was bottled in 2019 exclusively for Spirits Shop' Selection

One of 209 bottles.
