Chichibu Newborn Bourbon Single Cask #127

Country: Japan

Region:

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Number One Drinks Co.

ABV: 62.5%

Score: 86 Points

The nose is strong but light, with grass, straw, vanilla, and a slight white wine note. The taste is intense and peppery with lemon-lime notes underneath, a great mouthfeel, and touches of honey, straw, and vanilla. The finish is long, tart, sweet, and well-balanced with notes of honey and lemon. This shows great promise for the future.
