Chichibu Ichiro's Malt The US Edition, Ex-Bourbon & Sherry Cask, 2024, 52.5%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

90 / 100

The green pear, lemon zest and white peach give this a clear fruit focus, with dark cherry and dried fruit adding a deeper edge. The honey and oak sound measured, so the fruit stays in balance rather than becoming overly sweet.
