Read More About the Hanyu distilleryIn 1941, on the banks of the Tome river in the town of Hanyu, history was made. The distillery of the self same name as the town was established by the venerable Isouji Akuto. Humbly starting with stainless steel column stills used for distilling grain, it wasn’t until the 1980’s that chopper post stills were introduced into the distillery and malt was charged into the pots.
The distillate that arrived soon after has stood the testament of time, with some of the most sought after whisky in the world being crafted at this small but highly traditionalist distillery.
Unfortunately, due to economic downturn, the distillery was mothballed in 2000 and following a change of ownership was dismantled in 2004. However, the grandson of Isouji, Ichiro, bought back the distillery grounds and 400 precious remaining casks of Hanyu whisky, most of which rested in Oloroso sherry casks and other fortified wine casks.
Ichiro quickly set about releasing some of these incredible casks of whisky, beginning with the ‘Card Series’, based on a deck of playing cards. Eventually, a total of 58 releases were made, including two jokers, and a second batch of follow up releases to the original 2005 Ace of Spades, Queen of Hearts, King of Diamonds, and Jack of Clubs.
