Whiskyfun — Chichibu 2014/2025 cask3548

Retrieved 05 October 2026

Whiskyfun finds almond, pistachio and fresh-rubber aromas, followed by sharp lime and ash. Water brings fruit forward while peat stays restrained. The fairly long finish has lime and fir buds. The reviewer finds it very good, but short of exceptional.
