Distillery: Chugoku Jozo

Togouchi is a blended Japanese whisky from the producers Chugoku Jozo, who mature their whisky in a tunnel rather than a warehouse. The name comes from where the tunnel is located, in the town of Togouchi, which merged with two other towns to create a larger town called Akiota. This is their no-age-statement expression, the Togouchi Premium Blended Japanese Whisky.

Distillery Information

Chugoku Jozo was founded near the city of Hiroshima. The Distillery produces since 1918 fruit liqueurs, sake and shochu under the brands Dharma and Songshan, a long aged shochu. In 1990 Chugoku Jozo started blending whiskeys under the brand Togouchi. Chugoku Jozo Distillery does not distill whisky but imports it already distilled, directly from Scotland for malt whisky and from Canada for grain whisky. Only the operations of aging and blending are performed by Chugoku Jozo master blenders.
