Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with a radiant honey glow and a delicate copper gleam when the bottle catches the light.
Nose
Opulent, fragrant nose of rich vanilla and malt, lifted by ripe orchard fruit—apple and pear—plus tropical hints of mango and pineapple. A citrus thread of orange zest winds through honeyed oak, while cinnamon and white pepper deliver subtle spice. A whisper of coastal breeze and a touch of smoke hint at depth to come.
Palate
Opulent and full-bodied, this Chichibu delivers tropical fruit and lemon zest over a vanilla–caramel spine. Silky yet assertive, with peppery spice and well-integrated oak, it coats the palate in creamy texture and honeyed fruit, finishing long with cocoa and a warm, lingering mineral brightness.
Finish
Long, velvety finish that lingers with peppery spice, toasted oak and vanilla, giving way to dark chocolate, dried fruit and a subtle whisper of smoke; a refined, warming conclusion that remains on the palate with elegant staying power.
