Chichibu 2014 Single Bourbon Cask #3874 LMDW Singapore 15th Anniversary is a private-selection Japanese single malt bottled for La Maison du Whisky's Singapore 15th anniversary. The combination of Chichibu's house style, a single bourbon-cask maturation and an exclusive bottling for one of Asia's most respected whisky retailers gives it clear specialist appeal.
From the Producer
Chichibu's distillation site sits in the mountains of Saitama, north-west of Tokyo, and is the family project of Ichiro Akuto — heir to the Hanyu distillery that his grandfather built and ran until 2000. Chichibu began production in 2008 with two stills, floor maltings, on-site mashing and slow fermentations; everything about the operation is built around small-batch, cask-led output. Maturation is the distillery's signature: a wide mix of bourbon barrels, sherry butts, mizunara oak, wine casks and bespoke Japanese oak, filled in small lots and bottled generally at cask strength without colouring or chill-filtration. Single-cask Chichibu releases are the distillery's main route to specialist collectors, and La Maison du Whisky (LMDW) is one of Chichibu's longest-standing international partners — sourcing both Artist Series anniversary casks and retailer-specific anniversary casks across Asia.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Bright orchard fruit, malt sweetness, vanilla and clean oak.
