THE BRAND
Born in 2008, the Japanese single malt whisky Chichibu has already captured the hearts of Japanese whisky enthusiasts and discerning whisky connoisseurs alike. Produced entirely in its distillery, and soon incorporating local ingredients such as barley, peat, and even Japanese oak for certain expressions, Chichibu is poised to become the first 100% Japanese whisky, thanks to the vision of its creator, Ichiro Akuto. Fermented in mizunara casks (a highly prized variety of Japanese oak for whisky) and distilled in small stills, this liquid surprises with its maturity and complexity, even at a young age. A true artisanal masterpiece.
CHICHIBU
Chichibu is a Japanese distillery founded in 2008 by Ichiro Akuto in the mountainous region of Saitama, near Tokyo. Although young, the distillery quickly established itself as one of the best in Japan, thanks to Ichiro’s vision, a passion for the art of distillation, and a desire to produce exceptional whisky. Chichibu stands out for its use of pure water from nearby mountains and artisanal methods, including aging in oak casks, sometimes imported from Scotland, as well as wine and sherry casks. The distillery embodies both innovation and Japanese tradition in the world of whisky.
