Crafted with precision and elegance, The Chita Single Grain Japanese Whisky is a refined expression from Suntory’s Chita Distillery. Produced primarily from corn and distilled in column stills, this whisky showcases the artistry of Japanese grain whisky as a stand-alone spirit. Bottled at 43% ABV, it delivers a delicate, smooth profile with layers of subtle complexity that make it an exceptional sipping experience.
The Chita is matured in a unique combination of American white oak, Spanish oak, and wine casks. This multi-cask aging imparts depth and character, allowing gentle sweetness, floral notes, and hints of spice to evolve while maintaining a clean, balanced structure. The result is a whisky that exemplifies the Japanese philosophy of harmony and craftsmanship.
