Iwai Tradition Japanese Whisky

• Mars Japanese Whisky
• 750ml / 40%

Located between Japan’s soaring Southern Alps and the towering Central Alps, at just over 2,600 feet, Mars Shinshu is Japan’s highest whisky distillery. Iwai Japanese Whisky has a very strong, almost caramel taste, but what gives this whisky its truly unique finish is that it is aged in ex-bourbon, sherry, and wine barrels for 12 years. This gives it a wonderful after taste, featuring hints of wine and wood.

Mars Iwai Tradition Japanese Whisky is soft and rounded, yet full bodied and mellow. The nose gives sweet honey, leading to a complex, peaty full bodied palate which gives sweet peat, orange marmalade, maple, burnt sugar cane, cedar and cigar.
