A 2023 release of Japanese single malt from Chichibu, bottled at 50.5% in a 70cl bottle. It was matured in red wine casks from France, the United States, New Zealand and Japan. Ichiro Akuto, grandson of the founder of the Hanyu distillery, started Chichibu in 2007 with two stills made by Forsyth's in Scotland. The nose blends honey, fine wood, medlar, wild berries and citrus. The palate opens with red fruits led by blueberry, then citrus, mint, liquorice and cedar, with bitter cocoa and caramel sweetness. The finish is long, with clove, orangette and a lingering milk chocolate sweetness.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
