Lot number: 091-7022

Winning bid: £650

From its Mizunara wash backs and small stills with steep lyne arms to the fact that the mashman uses a wooden paddle to stir the mash, Chichibu is a hands-on distillery with quality as an intrinsic focus. With the ground now broken on a blending room, and an off-site cooperage, Ichiro Akuto's distillery, formed from the ashes of his grandfather's Hanyu distillery, is one of the finest producers in Japan.

This peated malt, aged in an ex-Hanyu cask, was selected by La Maison du Whisky.

Distilled: 2012

Cask Type: Ex-Hanyu Hogshead

Cask Number: 2070

62.9% ABV / 70cl
