Description

From its Mizunara wash backs and small stills with steep lyne arms to the fact that the mashman uses a wooden paddle to stir the mash, Chichibu is a hands-on distillery with quality as an intrinsic focus. With the ground now broken on a blending room, and an off-site cooperage, Ichiro Akuto's distillery - formed from the ashes of his grandfather's Hanyu distillery - is one of the finest producers ...

Nose
Lovely, soft and complex notes of dried fruits and nuts. Fluffy aromatic clouds of goodness. Fudge, homemade caramel pudding, whipped cream and runny honey. With time also hints of dark chocolate and coffee - no, wait; a sweet and extra creamy Espresso Martini.
Palate

Finish
Long finish. It keeps developing, but it is always centered around notes of caramel, honey and coffee / dark chocolate. As it finally dies away there's salty caramel flavored popcorn served with freshly cracked peanut shells.
