From a now closed distillery - Hanyu shut down in 2000 and was dismantled in 2004.
Thankfully the stocks were saved by the founder's grandson who rebuilt the distillery and kick-started production in 2008, marketing under the Chichibu label.

This super rare bottling is from the last reserves of Hanyu's whisky. Sub titled "The Final Vintage of Hanyu", 3710 bottles were produced. 46.5% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... [4th release tasted] Another, typically Hanyu, sugar malt juicy salvo; a degree of tangy buzz; oozes character and quality. 89.5 points - Jim Murrays Whisky Bible 2015
