Description

The 2025 edition of the highly anticipated annual collaboration between Chichibu and La Maison du Whisky, Ichiro's Malt Chichibu Paris Edition, explores the geography and urban identity of Paris and Tokyo. With six colourful labels, a tribute to Japanese kawaii culture, the series invites you to visit the emblematic districts of these two capitals: Montmartre and Asakusa; Le Marais and Harajuku; Les Champs-Élysées and Ginza. Inspired by postage stamps with their jagged edges, they evoke travel and the correspondence between the two urban cultures. Ichiro's Malt Chichibu Paris Edition 2025 Le Marais x Harajuku is dedicated to two bastions of modernity. Le Marais, the epicentre of Paris Fashion Week, with its unparalleled concentration of pop-up stores, art galleries and coffee shops, resonates with Harajuku: a haunt of trendy youth where lovers of alternative fashion, kawaii culture, bubble tea and latte art meet. This complex blend consists of 17 different casks, with whiskies ranging in age between 5 and 14 years.

Nose
Rich, unctuous. Backed by a pleasant malty bitterness, earthy and spicy (cinnamon), the aromatic palette quickly opens up to tropical fruit notes (passion fruit, lychee), dark berries (grape, blackberry), and undergrowth (dry leaves, porcini mushrooms). Subtle hints of prune then lend it a noble character.
Palate
Clean, lively. At first, oily, robustly peaty, lemony, and peppery, the flavor profile shifts toward more honeyed and waxy notes. Becoming increasingly creamy, it grows more indulgent (toasted bread, rusk), malty (barley porridge), and deliciously fruity (mirabelle plum, damson).
Finish
Long, concentrated. Echoing the malty tones of the nose and palate, the finish is refreshed by flavors of gentian, mint, eucalyptus, and sage. Both exotic (passion fruit) and candied (prune), the retro-olfaction gradually softens with notes of toffee and bourbon vanilla.
