This can now be bought in Israel. Prices are on average about 500 Shekels (about £100). It is not approved for the strictly kosher consumer as (as you say) it does contain some wine cask maturation.

very interestingly that when a week before you released your last video on the red wine cask I bought my first chichibu. And a week ago before you released this video, it happened I bought my second bottle of chichibu, the 2022 peated 😆 really want to see someday if I can buy this On the way 2024 at a reasonable price 😊

Intriguing, I hope the Whisky Live Paris stand next September won't be too busy to let me approach it to taste it, Mac...and Yumi is lovely. I had the chance to try the 2013 release here & loved it, but prices were already high at that time & other Japanese distilleries (especially the Nikka & Suntory group ones) were releasing almost their last crazy good bottlings before the 2015 shortage...Thanks for these first promising impressions & all infos !

New comment (hoping it doesn't disappear like previous one, not your fault, Mac, but due to some weird mysterious YT trickery ?) : Great video, Mac, dense & very informative (as always) & with a great background story for this brand. Also kudos to Nanbu for this "tour de force"' from them to create a gin with only 2 ingredients (plus of course the rice base spirit) ! I think also that, as for every country, it is often very interesting (if not crucial at least to try) to pair one's region food with same region wine & or spirits. Couldn't help pouring me something special to go along your video, the only unaged Japanese spirit that I have except Ki No Bi gin, an indie bottlings Shochu (details/pics on your Instagram DM). So yeah, well done, Mac & Kanpaï ! 👍

Hey Mac (and Chris)! Is any part of the vodka’s sake-like flavor due to koji? Is it used in the process at all? The description makes the flavor sound similar to kome shochu, but I know that starts as sake made via multiple parallel fermentation which then gets distilled. Either way, sounds delicious, can’t wait to try it. Cheers, awesome episode!
@KanpaiPlanet
@KanpaiPlanet Ай бұрын
Hi Van. The koji will have played some factor for sure, given the underlying sake base of the vodka! Hope you get a chance to try it soon, and when you do please let me know your thoughts! Kanpai!

Fantastic. I should try both vodka and gin..! It’s a little off topic but when I visited Nanbubijin last year, I had white birch juice that is 100% pure sap of the tree, which was the weirdest drink I’ve ever had, with water-like texture with syrupy sweetness but without wood notes.. I guess the vodka doesn’t reflect the flavor of white birch still interesting to try

He’s back! Also love that you have Chris on board for this one as well. It’s great to have two expert opinions that compliment each other, and the delivery from each of you creates a new and refreshing dynamic for the video. You know it’s a good Vodka if you’re both spending as long nosing it as you would a decent whisky! One thing that seems quite common across many of your guests and in the spirits they produce is that they’re exceptionally good at capturing the character of the region and the local ingredients often shine through very well. Kosuke also seems like a really jovial and likeable guy, not to mention having a huge heart. Jealous of the food and cocktail pairing at the end - definitely got hungry watching this video haha!

First off, thank you very much for your generous donation over at buymeacoff.ee/kanpaiplanet. Truly appreciated! Thanks for the kind words about the body! I was thrilled to have Chris Hughes on board for this one too; his expertise really adds a lot to the discussion. We're glad you enjoyed the dynamic and the in-depth nosing of the vodka. It's amazing how local ingredients can bring out the unique character of a region in spirits. Kosuke Kuji is indeed a fantastic guy with a big heart. Kanpai!

There are magical moments in life when you get the opportunity to taste an extremely rare and expensive whisky (or wine) that are worth the money just for its historical significance. Even if there are better bottles for far less money, its the story you're buying and tasting not just the whisky. Thanks for sharing! 🥃
