Background & production

A blend from Venture Whisky in Chichibu. Chichibu malt is the key malt, combined with malt from nine distilleries and grain from two.

It is a "world blended" whisky using whiskies from Ireland, Scotland, America, Canada and Japan, so it does not qualify as "Japanese whisky" under the Japan Spirits & Liqueurs Makers Association standard.

Bottled at 46% in 700ml bottles.
