CHICHIBU 8 ans 2016 Single Cask #14044 Bordeaux Red Wine Cask Foundations

$710.00

Aged in a cask that once held one of the most renowned classified wines of Pauillac, this version has absorbed the noble Médoc influence, resulting in an infinitely delicate mouthfeel.

Upon tasting, it becomes clear why this Japanese single malt, launched in 2008, is adored by enthusiasts worldwide.

It is also a delight to know that Ichiro Akuto opened a second distillery on the other side of the city in 2019. With five times the capacity, this distillery has been simply named Chichibu #2.

Tasting Notes


Colour
: Old gold.

Nose : Refined, complex. Powdery (rice), mentholated, and resinous, the aromatic palette shines with elegance. At its peak, it releases captivating scents of candied lemon, almond milk, walnut, vanilla, yellow flowers, and verbena.

Palate : Clean, lively. Initially juicy (grape, pear) and mouthwatering, the flavor profile is supported by a pleasant herbal and citrusy acidity. Radiating maturity, it develops into flavors of dried fruits (fig, date, currant).

Finish : Long, soft. Delicately tannic, the start of the finish is tenderly chocolaty. Radiant, it becomes increasingly heady (orris concrete), honeyed, and vanilla-flavored. The aftertaste is nobly spiced (cardamom, ginger).
