The project centers on a special whiskey. This whiskey will be developed using Sony’s sound technology. The idea is that music can change how people taste the whiskey. Different sounds might highlight different flavors in the drink.
Venture Whisky’s Chichibu Distillery will make the actual whiskey. Chichibu is known for its high-quality Japanese whiskey. The distillery will handle the production and aging process. Sony Music will contribute its knowledge of sound and sensory experiences.
The partners call this concept “Music Whiskey”. It explores the connection between sound and taste. They believe listening to specific music while drinking can make the flavors more intense or complex. This is a new idea for the whiskey world.
Akio Naito from Sony Music Entertainment expressed excitement. He said Sony wants to create new value through music. They see this as a fresh way to enjoy whiskey. Venture Whisky’s Ichiro Akuto also shared his thoughts. He stated Chichibu is always looking for new challenges. He believes this partnership combines tradition with exciting innovation.
