Edition 5 of Chichibu’s 7EVEN Gods of Fortune series, Fukurokuju, is drawn from a 2015 single Ex-Bourbon cask from Saitama and bottled at 61% cask strength for Europe at eight years old, the wood lending vanilla and warm spice to the distillery’s lively orchard fruit.

Description
The 7EVEN Gods of Fortune series from Chichibu Distillery in Saitama pairs a collector's presentation with the substance of genuine single cask releases. Edition 5 is dedicated to Fukurokuju, the god of wisdom, luck and longevity, and draws from a 2015 distillation matured eight years in Ex-Bourbon wood before bottling in 2024 at 61% for the European market.
Eight years in bourbon barrel gives Fukurokuju a rounded and integrated profile: vanilla and toasted grain from American oak sit in balance with Chichibu's characteristic orchard fruit and fresh cereal, and the finish carries a warm, easy spice. At 61% the release is one of the gentler cask strengths in this vintage range, making it a more approachable entry point into Chichibu's single cask programme without sacrificing the intensity that defines distillery bottlings.
