Togouchi is produced by Chugoku Jozo, a distillery in the city of Togouchi in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. The distillery is located in a natural cave system that was originally built as a railroad tunnel, but was later converted into an ideal environment for maturing whisky. The cool, damp conditions in the tunnels provide an optimal climate for maturing whisky, resulting in a product that is rich in flavor and character.

An 8-year-old malt originating from Scotland is blended with a Canadian grain to create a blend that is then matured for a further five years. As the temperature in the tunnel is a constant 14 degrees Celsius, the master blender at the Chugoku Jozo distillery decided that this unfinished railroad tunnel was the ideal place for the maturation process. With Togouchi Kiwami, the company from the Japanese mountain region of Chugoku Akiota Sanchi presents a blended whisky that is both fruity and sweet.

"Kiwami" is Japanese and means something like high quality or special. These unique maturation conditions allow the aromas and flavors of the whisky to develop optimally, resulting in a distinctive and high-quality end product.
