These limited editions have been named “World’s Best Limited Edition Blend” at the World Whiskies Awards in four of the last six years, highlighting their extraordinary quality and the expertise and talent of those who created them.
Ichiro Akuto, the creator of this whisky, used the oldest stocks from the Chichibu distillery, but also rare and precious barrels from the closed Hanyu and Kawasaki distilleries that he was able to collect and store in Chichibu.
Hanyu, his grandfather's distillery, distilled only single malt, the last filled barrels of which are now around twenty years old, while Kawasaki was a distillery entirely dedicated to the production of grain whisky.
This prodigious Japanese blend slowly but surely opens up towards a complexity characteristic of these limited editions: ripe fruits, old wood, fresh herbs and fine spices. The delicate smoke in an incense style remains a key element of the tasting.
Nose : From the first notes, aromas of maple syrup, dried fruits, and a fresh herbal quality are revealed, showcasing a beautiful aromatic complexity. The layers of sweetness, both oily and malty, develop harmoniously, creating a seductive and refined bouquet.
Palate : The initial taste is soft and enveloping, with a smooth, almost velvety texture. Cereal aromas provide a subtle and comforting base, while the richness of molasses and warm notes of vanilla gradually emerge, adding depth and warmth. A smoky touch of peat then weaves in, perfectly balancing the rich sweetness. In the background, the fresh oak aroma recalls the maturation in barrels, adding an elegant woody dimension.
Overall : The finish is long and persistent, leaving a lasting impression on the palate. It reveals evolving layers of richness and freshness, offering a refined conclusion to this complex and noble experience.
