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. This world blended whisky, crafted by Ichiro Akuto, founder of the Chichibu Distillery, celebrates the 20th anniversary of Venture Whisky, established in September 2004. The whisky combines oak-aged malt and grain whiskies from various renowned regions, including those from the Chichibu Distillery, carefully blended to bring their individual characteristics to life.
