ChichibuIchiro's Malt - The Peated (U.S. Edition)

Chichibu Ichiro's Malt - The Peated (U.S. Edition) is a Japanese single malt whisky made in a style that puts peat smoke clearly at the center. For a new drinker, that means a noticeable smoky character layered over the distillery's typically bright, modern house style.

Compared with softer or fruit-led whiskies, this bottling is aimed more toward drinkers who enjoy smoke and a firmer, more assertive profile. It offers a good introduction to peated Japanese whisky without needing to be understood as an extreme style.
