CHICHIBU

CHICHIBU

Chichibu, often referred to as "Japan's youngest distillery," has taken the whisky world by storm. Founded in 2008 by Ichiro Akuto, this relatively new distillery has rapidly gained recognition and respect for its outstanding craftsmanship and unique approach to whisky making. Located in the Saitama Prefecture, Chichibu benefits from the pure waters of the Arakawa River and the pristine air of the surrounding countryside. This combination of natural elements plays a crucial role in the quality and character of Chichibu's whiskies.

Chichibu's philosophy is deeply rooted in tradition but embraces innovation. They focus on creating high-quality malt whiskies, with meticulous attention to detail at every stage of production. The distillery's commitment to producing its whisky from raw ingredients is evident through the barley fields nearby, and they have also dabbled in growing their barley, exemplifying their "grain-to-glass" approach.
