Limited-edition, pure malt Japanese whisky distilled at Komagatake Distillery and Tsunuki Distillery then aged at the Yakushima Aging Cellar on Yakushima Island, Japan. 100% malted barley with a palate of marcona almonds and hazelnut; the finish offers tempting notes of salt water taffy and candied lemon peel with a whisp of peat smoke. 50% ABV The Mars Yakushima Aging Cellar is four hours south of Kagoshima by boat, on the volcanic island of Yakushima, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage site. The new-make spirits sent here from the distilleries in Nagano and Kagoshima are influenced by the island’s heavy rainfall and coastal breezes, resulting in a salty and tropical-fruit-forward whisky blend that has a voice all its own. Single malt whiskies from Shinshu and Tsunki distilleries are combined then mature at Y.A. cellar. 50ml. 1/2 pours available.
