THE FIRST SINGLE GRAIN WHISKY FROM THE HOUSE OF SUNTORY
Continuing 40 years of excellence in distilling Japanese grain whiskies at Chita distillery, the House of Suntory Whisky’s Master Blenders have created an outstanding single grain whisky. With versatile flavors and exquisite balance, Chita grain whiskies have traditionally been used as the “dashi” or broth that enhances the harmony of Suntory blends. Through continuous research and innovation, the Chita’s grain whiskies have achieved an unrivaled sophistication and a level of complexity that lets them finally take center stage.
With the Chita Single Grain Whisky, Shinji Fukuyo achieved complexity, subtlety & refinement. Fukuyo describes The Chita Single Grain Whisky as “the serenity of Japanese whisky.” Like the misty, calm seas of the Chita Peninsula on a day of elegant stillness, this airy whisky has a presence that is unmistakably serene. We invite you to experience the quiet confidence of the Chita whisky.
Born in September 2015, Chita Single Grain Japanese Whisky is completely different from the ordinary grain whiskies used in blended whisky. To imbue greater complexity and depth of flavor, Shinji Fukuyo chose to age the Chita grain whisky in wine and Spanish Oak casks, in addition to American White Oak.The result is a milder, smoother grain whisky with unparalleled sophistication and a clean, clear finish.
