"It's not just by being the first new distillery there for 35 years that Chichibu started the Japanese new wave - it completely shook up mt expectations of Japanese whisky. This is a great example: ut's not just finished in a craft beer barrel but matured for 6 of its 10 years in it. The floral and bitter hoppiness mingles beautifully with a fruit salad of flavours." - Sukhinder Singh
