This exclusive release, bottled as number 308 out of only 1833 bottles, showcases the artistry and collaboration between Chichibu distillery and La Maison du Whisky.

The Chichibu Paris Edition 2020 is a meticulously crafted blend of eight casks, carefully selected to create a whisky of unparalleled quality. Five of these casks were distilled in 2013, including a first-fill bourbon (peated) cask, three virgin oak casks, and one port pipe cask. Additionally, three casks distilled in 2014 were included, consisting of two Chibidarus and one red wine cask. This unique combination of casks imparts a symphony of flavors and aromas, resulting in a harmonious and complex whisky.

Each cask has played a vital role in shaping the character of this exceptional whisky. The first-fill bourbon and peated casks contribute rich and smoky notes, while the virgin oak casks add depth and character. The port pipe cask imparts subtle fruitiness, and the Chibidarus and red wine cask bring their own distinctive influences, adding layers of complexity to the final blend.

Bottle 308 of 1833 signifies the exclusivity and limited availability of this remarkable release. As a collector's item, it holds great value for whisky enthusiasts who appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship behind Chichibu whiskies. Owning a bottle of the Chichibu Paris Edition 2020 is a testament to your discerning taste and appreciation for the finest whiskies.

The label of this edition pays homage to the Luxor Obelisks, a symbol of Parisian grandeur. These historic obelisks were gifted by Muhammad Ali Pasha, the ruler of Ottoman Egypt, to Charles X in 1830. Installed in 1836 at the prestigious Place de la Concorde, they stand as a testament to the city's rich cultural heritage. The label design captures the elegance and historical significance of the Luxor Obelisks, adding an extra layer of allure to this exceptional whisky.
