Ichiro's Malt & Grain is the flagship blended whisky from Venture Whisky, the independent company founded by Ichiro Akuto, creator of Chichibu Distillery in Saitama Prefecture. It embodies Akuto's idea of an "all-world whisky": a heart of Japanese whisky from his own malt and grain stocks, married with malt and grain whiskies from the world's other great whisky nations, Scotland, Ireland, Canada and the USA.
Vatted and matured at Chichibu, the result balances the precision and delicacy of Japanese whisky-making with the depth and versatility of whiskies from around the globe. Bottled at 46% without chill filtration or added colour, it is an excellent introduction to one of the most exciting whisky makers working today.
