Komagatake Single Malt Japanese Whisky Yakushima Aging Bottled in 2020

Distilled at Mars Shinsu distillery, this limited edition Komagatake Yakushima Aging single malt has been matured on Yakushima island before being bottled in 2020. This single malt whisky exemplifies the Mars approach to experimentation, taking full advantage of Japan’s vast and varying terrain by distilling in Nagano, 2,625 feet above sea level, then transporting the whisky south for aging in Yakushima, an island 60 km off the Kagoshima mainland. Distilled in 2015 and 2016, this non-chill filtered, lightly peated single malt has aged for just over 3–4 years in primarily ex-bourbon barrels and some sherry casks.
