Ichiro's MaltChichibu 10-year-old

Ichiro's Malt Chichibu 10-year-old is a Japanese single malt whisky from the Chichibu distillery, bottled at 50.5% ABV and carrying a stated age of 10 years. For a novice drinker, that generally suggests a whisky with more concentration and structure than many standard releases.

Chichibu has built a strong reputation for carefully made, small-scale whisky, and older age-stated bottlings are relatively uncommon. Expect a style that is likely fuller and more layered than younger examples, with the higher strength giving it extra intensity in the glass.
