Ichiro's Malt Chichibu On the Way

The 2013 bottling of this (the only I've tasted) is sublime. Tasting canned fruit brought me back to my childhood, the long finish snapped me back to the present. This whiskey gave me a journey, and one I thoroughly enjoyed, and isn't that the point? delicious

If this is on the way, I can't wait till it's there. Obviously young, but doesn't show it. Like a really well matured little kid that acts way ahead of his /her age. Polished and elegant; quality through and through. Nose opens with smoke and melons. Flavors of salted caramel, green apples and ripe melons. A bit of peaty smoke, but very different than the Islay or Islander. I'm glad I bought a sample, but now wishing I got the full bottle.

had at Bull in a China shop in Shoreditch with Ebony - citrus
