Ichiros Malt And Grain Whisky 700ml

The most comprehensive and accessible Whisky by Ichiro Akuto is, as denoted on the label, a fusion of Malt and Grain Whiskies. Although the exact origin of the ingredients is not disclosed, it is understood to be a blend of Japanese distilled material combined with Whiskies sourced globally. The blend encompasses spirits from Canada, the United States, Ireland, and Scotland, in addition to whisky from Akuto's own reserves, which may potentially include Hanyu and Karuizawa, as well as his proprietary Chichibu. The foreign Whiskeys, aged 3-5 years, mature in their countries of production prior to meticulous blending with local Japanese material, and further maturation at Chichibu for an additional 1-3 years. This Whisky is vatted in 2 x 5,000-litre wooden barrels crafted by French cooper Taransaud, and is non-chill filtered and non-coloured. Chichibu Ichiro's Malt & Grain World Blended Whisky is a prime illustration of Akuto's whisky making prowess.
