MARS THE Y.A. #4
Special Features: Mars The Y.A. #4 combines the craftsmanship of the Mars distilleries Komagatake and Tsunuki with the unique maturation on the UNESCO World Heritage island of Yakushima. This special aging in a humid, warm climate accelerates the maturation process and gives the whisky remarkable depth and complexity. Bottled at a robust 50% alcohol by volume, this blended malt presents itself in its full expressive power.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Inviting aromas of ripe exotic fruits, accompanied by a hint of earthy peat smoke and a subtle mossiness reminiscent of the lush forests of Yakushima.
Palate: Full-bodied and complex, with a harmonious balance between sweet fruit notes and smoky undertones, enhanced by the tropical maturation.
Finish: Long and warming, with a lingering echo of peat smoke and a slight salty sea breeze that reflects the maritime proximity of the island.
Distillery/Bottler: Mars Shinshu Distillery is known for its innovative approach to whisky production, utilizing the different climatic conditions of its three distilleries and warehouses to create a diverse and complex whisky range.
