What Makes This Japanese Whisky Cooperage So Unique?

A local japanese whisky distillery called Venture Whisky founded by Akuto Ichiro and based in the mountains of Chichibu (JAPAN) is gaining more and more attention among whisky fans, especially on their Ichiro's malt production. One of their secrets lies in the production of their own whisky barrels. A few years after their production debut they quickly wanted to have a barrel that fits their product in order to produce good whisky.
In particular, they create a specific barrel, a Japanese barrel using mizunara oak coming straight from the cold mountains of Hokkaido. Have a glimpse inside Venture Whisky’s cooperage, one of the five only barrel factories in Japan.

After watching this video I will buy a Chichibu whisky to experience all of the knowledge this cooper has used.

Thanks Fernando! Do you know which one you'll get?
If you're looking to get a whisky aged with mizunara barrel, I recommend you the Mizunara wood reserve

[@fmiazaki]

@@EssenceofJapan Can you recommend me any good store in Japan to buy this one?

[@EssenceofJapan]

@@fmiazaki You can get some bottles online, like on amazon but I don't really know about some precise retailer
