Score 87/100 · Whisky Advocate, Sep 2017
Delicate aromas of chamomile, marigolds, gardenias, peaches, apples, and vanilla undergirded by biscuity cereal notes transition seamlessly to an elegant palate of vanilla, green apples, malted milk balls, and fresh herbs. The finish has gentle spice that fades into warm chocolate with continuing creamy grain. A blend of Japanese and other whiskies that responds well to water.

About the producer
Chichibu
Chichibu is one of Japan’s smallest and most beloved single malt whisky producers, founded by the famed Master Distiller Ichiro Akuto in 2008. Akuto and Chichibu have been instrumental in Japanese whisky’s current popularity – and the sky-high secondary market prices fetched for certain bottlings.
