The Chichibu Distillery in Hokkaido Japan is boutique in the extreme with just 14 employees and two small copper pot stills. This whisky is a blend of Japanese material blended with Whiskies sourced from around the world including Canada, the USA, Ireland and Scotland. Typical attention to detail has produced a meticulous blend showing more highland grainy flavours than the peaty west coast flavours of Scotland. If I ever return to Niseko for skiing I will make an attempt to visit this wonderful little distillery in Hokkaido. 46% ABV. — 3 years ago

Whiskey champion. So memorable as Clau and I went here 12 years ago just to watch the temple float parade despite pouring rain. Ended up sitting on a concrete block drinking — 7 years ago

So smooth. A dash of cold water. Only a dash. Almost too smooth. You will polish off that bottle too quick. Touch of smoke. Touch of malt. And a lot of drinkability — 8 years ago
