The Paris Edition 2026 series, a tribute to Claude Monet

Since 2018, the Chichibu Paris Edition series has been exploring the links between France and Japan through exclusive assemblages inspired by emblematic figures and places. The 2026 edition pays tribute to Claude Monet, on the occasion of the centenary of his death. A major figure of Impressionism, passionate about Japanese prints, the painter had a bridge built in his garden in Giverny inspired by Japanese architecture, which he never ceased to represent with the seasons and variations in light. Six distinct labels make up this edition: this one, in orange, takes up the work Japanese Bridge in Giverny (1900) and corresponds to bottles n° 1657-2070.

This Japanese single malt is a small batch of 14 casks: first and second fill bourbon casks, oloroso sherry hogsheads and new American white oak casks, aged between six and twelve years. Bottled at 50.5% and limited to 2,484 bottles, it is offered exclusively by La Maison du Whisky. Immediately accessible, its aromatic palette reveals a perfectly balanced profile, reflecting the mastery of master blender Ichiro Akuto, founder of the Chichibu distillery. A bright and complex whisky, with irresistible charm.
