What is the Japanese whiskey "Ichiro's Malt"?
"Ichiro's Malt" is a single malt whiskey made by "Venture Whisky" based in Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture. The distillery's founder, Ichiro Akuto, began distilling in 2008 using the skills and passion he inherited from his grandfather. Making use of the climate and spring water of Chichibu and the changing seasons of Japan, Ichiro's Malt is a whiskey that maintains traditional brewing methods while adding unique innovations, and is characterized by its malty aroma and complex, rich flavor.
It has won the world's highest award six times in the past, including in 2023, at the World Whisky Awards, the world's most prestigious whisky competition in the UK, and is widely recognized for its high quality and uniqueness. A variety of oak barrels are used for aging, and a method is used to bring out different flavors in each bottle. As a representative of Japanese craft whiskey, it continues to fascinate enthusiasts around the world.
