Ichiro’s Whiskey Malt Single Cask 7180 Single Malt Whisky

Description

Rare, singular, and uncompromising—the Ichiro’s Malt Single Cask #7180 is a standout in the Chichibu lineage, distilled in Japan’s Saitama prefecture and matured in a single first-fill ex-bourbon barrel. Bottled at approx. 61.9% ABV, it captures raw intensity and distilled focus. Expect a nose that begins with warmed vanilla cream, orchard pears, and malt biscuit, unfolding into hints of cedar and fresh ginger. On the palate, rich caramelized apple, toasted oak, subtle spice, and glimmers of chestnut merge in waves. The finish lingers long: malt cream—the sweetness of shortbread—fades into dry oak, gentle pepper, and a whisper of forest floor. This isn’t just whisky—it’s an experience in a bottle designed for deep sips, deliberate moments, and serious collectors.
