Mars Komagatake Blended Whisky, formerly known as Mars Shinshu, hails from the picturesque region of Nagano, Japan, and represents a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. This exceptional whisky is crafted from a blend of 70% corn and 30% malted barley, reflecting a unique Japanese approach to whisky-making.

The spirit is aged between 2 to 5 years in ex-bourbon barrels, allowing it to develop a captivating aroma and flavor profile. On the nose, Mars Komagatake offers enticing notes of chocolate-covered shortbread, followed by a palate rich with brown sugar and ripe pear. The whisky boasts a confident structure, with a subtle whisper of red fruit appearing on the finish, adding complexity and depth.

Recognized for its exceptional quality and craftsmanship, Mars Komagatake Blended Whisky was ranked #19 on Whisky Advocate’s list of Top 20 Whiskies of 2020. With an ABV of 45%, this blue-labeled Iwai (pronounced E-Y) expression is perfect for whisky enthusiasts seeking enhanced cocktail versatility, making it a versatile and sophisticated addition to any whisky collection.
