Chichibu Chichibu Specification 6 Years Old 2010

Chichibu Specification is an event only single cask expression from Chichibu in Saitama, distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2016 for a specific occasion. Venture Whisky has used event-tied bottlings throughout the distillery's history to release individual casks with a clear identity, and this six-year-old release sits within that pattern as one of the domestically focused selections from the 2010 vintage.

Six years in an Ex-Bourbon cask brings the profile typical of Chichibu at this age: vanilla, ripe apple, a hint of coconut and the gentle American oak warmth that bourbon casks produce in Japanese climate conditions. At 59.7% cask strength the spirit is well-rounded and approachable while retaining the natural texture and directness that single cask bottlings from this Saitama distillery are known for.
