Chichibu distillery was opened by Ichiro Akuto in 2008 and already has a reputation for releasing delicious young whiskies.Chibidaru is Akuto-sans original quarter-cask type. The 2014 vintage Chichibu was aged in Chibidaru casks. These are hogsheads that have been shortened and are around 150 litres in volume. The whisky is as good as you would expect from Ichiro.

A sought-after bottle of Chichibu single malt whisky matured in quarter casks, which are much smaller than your standard cask. Interestingly, the name "Chibidaru" means "cute casks" in Japanese! This one was distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2014, with a total of 6,200 bottles produced.

Chibidaru是日語「可愛的桶」的意思，指的是使用小型桶進行陳年，這樣的桶可以更快地為酒體提供強烈的風味。這款秩父Chibidaru日本威士忌就是在1/4桶中熟成的，帶來令人精神一振的辛辣和復雜口感。
