Chichibu Distillery is a venture whiskey company founded by Ichiro Hito, the grandson of the founder of Hanyu Distillery.
Chichibu Distillery was established in Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture, approximately 100 km northwest of Tokyo.
The distillery was built on a small hill about 30 minutes by car from the city center.
For preparation, we use soft water from the Oketsu River Valley water system that contains natural minerals.
By making whiskey using traditional methods of making Scotch whisky, we are trying to establish the unique character created by Chichibu's climate.
Our current standard products include Double Distilleries, Wine Wood Reserve, and Mizunara Wood Reserve, which are made by combining unblended sake from Hanyu Distillery and unblended sake from Chichibu Distillery, as well as Chichibu The First 3 Year Old and Chichibu, which are available in limited quantities. Single malts such as The Floor Malted 3 Year Old and Chichibu The Peated are also starting to be released.
The Classic Edition pursues a more classic taste while maintaining the concept of using the world's five major whiskeys that have been further aged in the Chichibu environment.
