Chita strives to create whiskies that blend tradition and modernity, employing innovative distillation methods while respecting time-honored craftsmanship. Every stage of production, from ingredient selection to maturation, is meticulously orchestrated to guarantee exceptional quality.

    Owner and history

    The Chita distillery is part of the Suntory Group, a major player in the Japanese spirits industry. Founded by Shinjiro Torii, Suntory has always focused on innovation while respecting tradition. The Torii family, the current owners, continues to pass on their passion for whisky and their commitment to excellence.

    Vinification and aging

    The Chita Whisky's winemaking process begins with the rigorous selection of ingredients, including premium corn kernels. Distillation takes place in copper pot stills, preserving the subtle aromas. After distillation, the whisky is aged in oak casks, where it develops its complexity and depth. The aging period varies, but each batch is carefully monitored to ensure a perfect balance between freshness and aromatic richness. The result is an elegant, harmonious, and remarkably refined whisky.
