Description

Chichibu Ichiro’s Single Malt Red Wine Cask Japanese Whisky 2023 is an outstanding bottling that combines the masterful Japanese whisky production of the Chichibu Distillery with the complexity of red wine casks. Under the direction of Ichiro Akuto, one of the best-known names in the world of Japanese whisky, this single malt is matured in red wine-infused casks, giving it unique fruity and spicy flavours. With an alcohol content of 50.5% by volume, this whisky has a strong yet balanced structure that perfectly brings out the intense wine notes and complex depth of the whisky.

This whisky is a true meisterwerk of cask maturation, as the red wine casks give Chichibu Ichiro’s single malt additional deep flavours of berries, cherries, vanilla and a light oak spice. The 2023 bottling reflects the distillery’s continuous development and innovation. The elegant gift box (GB) makes this limited edition the perfect gift for whisky lovers and connoisseurs.
