[New Item]Ichiro’s Malt Chichibu The Peated 2016

Thank you very much for your continued patronage of Azabu Juban BAR Shinkai.

Today we are pleased to announce the arrival of Ichiro’s Malt Chichibu The Peated 2016, a limited release from Venture Whisky Corporation and Chichibu Distillery.

「Chichibu The Peated」 is a superb series produced by the Chichibu distillery, with a focus on the peated raw whisky.

Smoky whisky with a strong character.It’s not to everyone’s taste, but once you’ve been seduced by its smokiness, it’s addictive and you’ll find that non-pete whisky just isn’t enough.

All the original pure form of whisky used were distilled in 2012.

Smokiness on a par with Laphroaig and Ardbeg continues strongly from nose to finish.It also has a sweetness from the oak and dried oranges.
It has a richness and sweetness that you wouldn’t expect from a four-year old, and the malt flavours have a strong presence.The impression is that each flavour is well integrated.
