- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ต.ค. 2024
- The latest video on Kanpai Planet dives deep into Chichibu Red Wine Cask 2023, the latest (relatively) widespread Single Malt release from the Chichibu Distillery. 11800 bottles of this liquid were released on 1 September 2023. I was super excited to try this Ichiro's Malt whisky, and finally got round to reviewing it in the snow in Chichibu! How is it? Watch to find out!

I am glad that I got it few weeks ago in SF and thats the first Chichibu I bought, even if thats not the best Chichibu you had, I still cannot wait to open. Haha
Like I said at the start of the video: "If you have a bottle or a dram, I hope you guys enjoy it!" 🤓🥃
Congratulations on 7000 and many more to come, Great review ,in US It's 320 plus bottle We all appreciate your honest reviews. Cheers!
Thank you! Not much honesty in the J-whisky space. Your support is always appreciated. Kanpai! 🥃🥃🥃
Congrats for the 7 K again, my friend ! Great also to see you with something less convincing, and then to put it into the perspective of the other wine casks that the distillery do or did offer...so a balanced review for an unbalanced whisky, right ? it alas happens also here in France where a lot of distilleries do rely partly or solely on wine casks (in order to come across as French distilleries) & not all do master it in my opinion, but when they do it is fantastic... Kanpaï !
Indeed Greg! I'm reminded of the poem "There was a little girl" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow when it comes to Wine Cask whisky!
Congratulations on the 7,000. I have a similar opinion about this bottle.
Thank you! Next stop: 10K!
It seems meant people shared our view! Kanpai! 🥃🥃🥃
This is a great review Mac, thanks for being absolutely honest and not falling into the fanboy category. Unfortunately I haven't tried any Chichibu yet, if you don't count the Glover blended malt they did with Ardnamurchan so I'm really looking forward to trying some in London and hope to see you too. Cheers my friend 🥃
Thank you for your comment and support, and highlighting the honesty. I appreciate it. Definitely try some Bourbon barrel Chichibu Single Casks - they are (on the whole) great!
Love sherry finished whisky, but have never had a red wine finished whisky I liked.
It's a tough one for sure!
Congratulations on 7000🎉
Thanks for your support! 🥃🙏👍🤓
Thanks
Thank you very much for your support! KANPAI! 🥃🥃🥃
Hi Mac!
Thanks for the honest and diplomatic review! Just watched your video on the CCB Red Wine Cask and fully agree that it's not the best representation of the cask type coming out of the distillery.
Tried it in Oct and the difference between the very pleasant nose and the very tannic palette was jarring.
Finally, congratulations on the 7000!!
You have hit the nail on the head, on all counts! And thanks again for the superthanks! 🥃🤓👍🙏
Congrats on the subs, thanks for the straightforward breakdown. Cheers!
Kanpai 🥃🥃🥃
Good to finally meet you last month, and great review Mac, haha love the honesty! I agree, this release was far below some of the amazing Kusuda, and other red wine single casks they’ve released. Congrats on hitting 7k!
Great to meet you too! Had to highlight those great single casks as some people might expect this to give a similar experience. Kanpai 🥃🥃🥃
Excellent video mate😁. I would love to know how these compare to Aussie wine cask whiskies
That's a great idea for a head-to-head... or a collab video! 🥃🥃🥃
@@KanpaiPlanet I rather suspect they will be in a different league. The Australian whiskey producers have only had wine/port casks for a long long time and are masters.
Sullivan's Cove, TIB & the right bottles from Black Gate or Overeem will not be a fair fight and hold their own against the likes of Signatory/Edradour and Longrow.
Sounds like I'll be drinking a lot of good whisky! 🤓🥃
Congrats on 7k subs, Mac! As I said before, you definitely deserve far and beyond the number of subs you have with the quality of content you put out. I’m confident 2024 is going to be an even bigger and better year for the channel.
Definitely a picturesque spot to review the whisky - you never cease to capture the beauty of Japan in your videos. Shame that this bottling itself is a little underwhelming, but as always appreciate your genuine and honest reviews. As you’ve said and reviewed, Chichubu has some great quality red wine cask strength bottling, but this one just seems a bit of a miss.
All the best til the next one! 🥃
Thank you so much for the heartfelt congratulations and kind words Roy! It means a lot to hear that you appreciate the effort I put into my content.
Japan truly offers some breathtaking scenery, and I'm glad I can share a glimpse of it with all of you.
As for the whisky, honesty is key in my reviews, even when a bottling falls short. I agree, while this one might not have hit the mark, there's always something new and exciting on the horizon.
Kanpai to the journey ahead, and I'll see you in the next video! 🥃
Great video Mac Love to try it.
Would be interested in your thoughts! 🥃🥃🥃
Something we can never get unless paying $500 or more from a secondary 😭
😢🥃
