Suntory Chita Single Grain Whisky is a distillery edition grain whisky from Suntory's Chita distillery. Suntory Chita is very soft with honey, butterscotch and vanilla aromas. Rated 92.5 by Jim Murray. Only available in Nagoya Prefecture Japan. Best Japanese Grain Whisky 2009 at the World Whisky Awards.

A key part of the Hibiki belnds (alongside Hakushu and Yamazaki), the Chita grain whisky is what gives those expressions the soft elegance which binds the flavour together.

Although most have heard of single malts, single grain whiskies are not quite as common. Excellent for blending and also delicate enough to be delicious on its own, this is without a doubt one of the finest single grain whiskies anywhere on the planet.

Suntory Chita Grain Whisky 700mL 43%

The Sun Grain (Suntory Grain) Chita distillery was founded by Suntory in Chita city, Aichi prefecture in 1972. As the name suggests grain whisky is made there. It is sometimes nicknamed the silent distillery as unlike other Suntory distilleries it is generally not open to visitors. That as such is no great loss as although the distillery makes quality whisky the site is anything but scenic. Unlike malt whisky which is made from barley, grain whisky is made using maize, wheat or rye and the process of making it is a little different. Malt whisky is made using pot steel, while grain whisky is distilled in a continuous column still which gives a higher percentage of alcohol and a different flavour.
