Product description

Ichiro Akuto is a beloved icon of the whisky world. A 21st century whisky maker who embraces the heritage and heart of the Scots while perfectly executing the precision and art of the Japanese and their Shokunin "craftsmanship" philosophy. Named after the town it resides in, Chichibu Distillery has only been open since 2008, but Ichiro hails from a long lineage of beverage-makers, beginning in the 1600s. Year after year, after Ichiro has won back-to-back World Whiskies Awards, he has gained the attention of whisky collectors from around the world. His Card Series of single malts, each label endorning one of the 54 playing cards, recently just auctioned off for right under $1,000,000. You could say that he has quite a whisky cult following. Although Ichiro specializes in single malts, Malt & Grain is his only blend available in the US. But there's a twist. Malt & Grain is an “All-World Blend”, the first of its kind. It is primarily composed of Ichiro's Japanese single malt whisky with a selection of Scotch, Irish whiskey, Canadian Rye and American Whiskey aged in home country 3-5 years, transferred to Chichibu and then aged again on site for an additional 1-3 years. Ichiro’s Malt: Malt & Grain is blended to balance a heart of Japanese whisky complimented by the major whisk(e)y regions of the world.

FAQs

Yes, whiskey is gluten-free, thanks to the distillation process used to make it. The Celiac Disease Foundation concluded that it can safely be considered gluten-free, though it’s still possible that some people with high gluten sensitivity or celiac disease could have a reaction to whiskeys created from certain grains.
Whiskey can include a large number of different distilled spirits made from fermented grain mash — usually cereal grains like rye, barley malt, wheat and corn. The drink undergoes aging in wooden containers, most often oak.
One of the reasons whiskey is so popular is that there’s no single way to enjoy it. There’s the purist route — straight and neat, no mixers, no ice — but what fun is being a purist? You can add water to it, which can enhance certain bottles’ flavors or you can add it with other ingredients to make delicious mixed drinks. It’s the foundation of the Manhattan, the Old Fashioned, the Whiskey Sour and many others.
