Ichiro is one of the most respected figures in modern Japanese whisky.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIchiro Akuto’s journey is one of the defining stories of the modern Japanese whisky revival. After Hanyu closed in the 1990s, Ichiro preserved his grandfather’s aging stock and built the Playing Card series — now unicorn whisky in the collector market. Recognizing the looming Japanese whisky revival, he founded Chichibu Distillery in 2008.
