Cuvée presentation

A single cask (#1000) of Chichibu, distilled in 2010, aged in a Japanese oak (mizunara, quercus mongolica) barrel and bottled in 2018 for Number One Drinks. This cuvée is one of the most sought-after from Chichibu. Noriko Kakuda Croll and David Croll founded a whiskey import business in Japan towards the end of the 1990s and it was through this work that they met Marcin Miller, editor and publisher of Whisky Magazine. Together, they launched a Japanese edition of Whisky Magazine and Whisky Live in 2000 and in 2005, they founded Number One Drinks Company, specialising in the export of exceptional Japanese whiskies such as Karuizawa, Hanyu and Chichibu, initially to Europe and then globally. A limited edition of 278 bottles.

The distillery Chichibu

Japan, Saitama. Distillery operational. Owner: Venture Whisky.

Independent & family-ownedIt was in 2007 that Ichiro Akuto, grandson of the founder of the Hanyu distillery, built a new distillery in the north-west of Tokyo, in Saitama Prefecture. Named Chichibu, it brought to a close several decades marked by the closure of numerous production sites, and enabled Ichiro Akuto to renew his family's history of expertise. Despite its small size (production capacity of 80,000 LPA/yr), Chichibu quickly drew attention and became highly sought-after. It was under the name “New Born” that Ichiro sold exclusively his malt for three years. In 2011, the first edition of a small batch Chichibu named The First was released (7,400 bottles). It was immediately welcomed by distributors and the world's whisky enthusiasts, putting Chichibu on the fast-track to becoming a distillery with strong potential as a collectible. Since then, Ichiro has released numerous single casks to respond to consumer demand, increasing the distillery's appeal among collectors.
