TASTING NOTES - CHICHIBU 10YO

Nose

Extremely fruity (ripe peaches, apricots, melons, gentle pineapple, a touch of ripe orange) and velvety, a true ode to Japanese whiskey masterpieces. Then it opens up to more complex hints of orange honey and a warm, suadent spices dimension, reminding of a used handmade winter blanket.

Palate

Since the very beginning it boasts a fantastic exotic fruit lingering on rich custard for a true "patisserie" experience. The overall impression is refreshed by a touch of light and classy balsamic herbs balancing the sweetness and providing depth. The suggestion is of light warmed salty butter, on top of which a crush of fresh white pepper has been added.

Finish

Long, creamy, fruity, with a touch of balsamic herbs. Delicious.

Chichibu 10yo is a fantastic release, rich in fruit and custard, with touches of pure magnificent complexity. Finally at an affordable price (for Chichibu).
