Description

A brand of Japanese whisky bottlings from Ichiro Akuto's Venture Whisky. Its first releases were the now legendary Card series bottlings of Hanyu, introduced in 2005. Today it counts Chichibu single malt as a sub-brand, as well as various blended Japanese whiskies. A company set up in 2004 by Ichiro Akuto in order to obtain the stocks from his grandfather's former distillery, Hanyu. In 2008 it opened the Chichibu distillery. This particular release is a single cask, world blended whisky bottled exclusively for Quercus Bar's 22nd Anniversary in August 2023.
