Ichiro Akito. Sound familiar? It should. He founded the famous Chichibu distillery in 2008 and gained notoriety for his exceptional juice in no time at all. It seems that whatever Ichiro touches becomes a must-have in the Whisky world. In fact, when it comes to Japanese Whisky, his products are as sought after as the rarest Katana.

Distilled in 2013, matured in first-filled American White Oak cask #2688 and bottled at 58% ABV, this is another Chichibu notch in Ichiro Akito’s already loaded belt.

Japanese Whisky is connected both to Scotch and Bourbon. It’s a Scotch-style Spirit that’s matured in climates similar to Kentucky’s.
The two biggest Whisky producers in Japan are Nikka and Suntory, major rivals.
Japanese Single Malts, like Scotch, are double-distilled in pot stills. Grain Whiskies, on the other hand, are distilled in column stills.
It's not uncommon for Japanese Whisky to be aged in mizunara (Japanese oak) casks. Suntory conducted a research on how mizunara oak influences Whisky flavor and found out it adds coconut notes to it.
Akuto is now trying to produce a 100% Japanese single malt Whisky. He is working with Japanese producers to get barley and casks.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
