- Description
- Chichibu's 2016 single cask was distilled from Odyssey barley and aged in a hogshead finished with mizunara wood, creating a Japanese whisky with distinctive spice and floral character. The combination of bourbon maturation and mizunara influence adds complexity and depth to the delicate spirit. An excellent introduction to Japanese whisky's refined, nuanced approach.
