Chichibu is a very hands-on distillery with very small production, and their limited releases are much sought after around the world. From malting their own barley in England to building their own casks, their attention to detail and love of whisky have helped them pick-up a well-deserved cult following. Located 100km from Tokyo in Saitama prefecture, was set up by Ichiro Akuto and began distilling in 2008. The Akuto family has a long history of alcohol production in Japan from sake to shochu and whisky; Ichiro wanted to continue this legacy in his hometown of Chichibu. The whiskies produced at Chichibu Distillery are incredibly elegant and sophisticated and reflect the quality and expertise invested in the process.
