CHICHIBU II Hint Of Sherry 2026

The Next Chapter: Chichibu II – The Second Official Release. Seven years after Chichibu’s second distillery began operations in 2019, a new milestone arrives. This highly anticipated second official release showcases the incredible evolution of Chichibu II, bringing together a meticulous selection of 5-to-6-year-old whiskies. This expression achieves a beautifully layered character, matured predominantly in a marriage of rich sherry casks and premium bourbon barrels. At its core lies the soul of traditional craftsmanship: distilled using direct-fire stills, the spirit gains an unmistakable depth, weight, and rich texture. Enhanced by a precise touch of peated malt, this release is a vibrant testament to Chichibu’s blending genius. Rich chocolate sweetness and depth derived from the sherry casks are complemented by vibrantcitrus fruit notes, creating a balanced and expressive profile. The combination of sherry influence and peat smoke delivers a pleasant and harmonious finish.
