Mars Komagatake 2013 Single Cask #1706 For Whisky Talk Fukuoka 2016

Distilled in 2013 at the Mars Shinshu distillery, nestled in Japan’s Nagano prefecture at the base of the Komagatake Alps, this single cask whisky embodies a unique production process dictated by the seasons. Production at Mars Shinshu pauses for brewing during warmer months, concentrating whisky distillation to the winter – a period now extending to six months due to growing demand. Matured exclusively in an American White Oak cask (#1706), this bottling for Whisky Talk Fukuoka 2016 presents a robust 55% ABV and delivers a complex flavour profile reflective of its alpine origins. Expect a spirit shaped by both traditional Japanese techniques and the distinct character of its mountainous environment.
