Togouchi

The distillery Chugoku Jozo

Togouchi is a whisky created by the Japanese distillery Chugoku Jozo located near Hiroshima. This distillery has been making liquor, sake and shochu, a traditional Japanese alcohol, since 1918. In 1990, they began to make whisky and the Togouchi brand was born. Since then, Chugoku Jozo has developed and refined its skills and techniques to make some of the very best Japanese spirits. From rigorously selected malts and grains, the master blender begins maturing the distillates in Japan before they are elegantly blended in “Japanese-style”.

The Togouchi whiskies are all aged in unique surroundings – a 361 metres long tunnel built in 1970. It provides ideal conditions for ageing thanks to a constant temperature of 14°C and a hygrometry of 80%. The Togouchi brand is made up of blended whiskies which are the incarnation of finesse and precision honouring the Earth’s precious resources – barley and water.
