Chichibu 2012 Single Cask #2112 - Intergalactic Edition 1

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 2012 and matured in single third-fill bourbon cask #2112, which had previously held peated Chichibu single malt. It was bottled in 2019 as the first edition of the distillery's Intergalactic Series.

This release was produced exclusively for Salud Distribution.
