Ichiro's Malt Chichibu The U.S. Edition 2021, 53.5%

The nose is abundant and generous, with a delicate integrated fruitiness and a fine sprinkling of cask spices: peach, dried apricot, baked orange, polished wood, rose-scented Turkish delight, and a hint of vanilla. Rich baked fruit on the palate, with apple, peach, orange, barley sugar, sweet vanilla, pepper, and clove; the citrus building to smother the spice, sweetening all the while, leaving peach cobbler on the finish.
