Ichiro Akuto is one of the most celebrated figures in Japanese whisky. Grandson of the family behind the legendary Hanyu distillery, he rescued Hanyu's remaining stocks when it closed and went on to found Chichibu, the first new whisky distillery to open in Japan in decades. His Ichiro's Malt range is now prized by collectors worldwide.

Ichiro's Malt MWR (Mizunara Wood Reserve) is a blended malt vatted, matured and bottled at Chichibu, with whiskies that have spent time in rare Japanese Mizunara oak. Prized for its scarcity and fragrance, Mizunara lends a refined, almost incense-like character of sandalwood and exotic spice. Bottled at 46% without chill filtration or added colour.

Palate Smooth and gently spiced, with orchard fruit, honeyed sweetness and the fragrant, woody spice of Mizunara oak.
Finish Spice and cooked ripe fruit continue, ending in candied apricot and a pleasant dryness.
