Description
This whisky is produced at Suntory's Chita "Sun Grain" Distillery in Aichi Prefecture. The Chita Distillery was founded in 1972 and produces grain whisky that is blended with Hibiki Japanese Harmony and other blended whiskies from Suntory.
"Suntory is distinctly unique in making various kinds of grain whiskies, and by blending these together has managed to achieve a light-bodied yet complex flavored grain whisky." - from the box
The Chita is billed as a "single grain" whisky. This grain is corn, the main ingredient in bourbon whiskey. Like bourbon this whisky has a sweet flavor. However, if you look at the ingredients on the bottle you will notice that some malt is also used. The malt is most likely included in order to enhance the flavor profile and add the noticeable hint of smokiness. Suntory has worked tirelessly to establish a worldwide reputation for top quality spirits and The Chita is no exception. The Chita is a uniquely Japanese take on corn whisky with no shortage of refinement, complexity, and balance.
