Chichibu 10 Years Old

Chichibu 10 Years Old, bottled in 2020, is a cask-strength single malt from Venture Whisky's Chichibu distillery in Saitama, matured in Ex-Bourbon casks and released at 50.5% for the global market. This release predates the 2025 edition by five years and represents an earlier look at what a decade of Chichibu maturation produces in American oak.

The flavour profile leans into the distillery's characteristic fresh-fruit vibrancy, with malt extract, hay-like cereal warmth and a gentle honey sweetness rounding the American oak's vanilla. Leafy and slightly grassy edges add freshness, and the cask-strength bottling ensures the fruit remains bright and direct on both nose and palate.
