MARS Komagatake Shinshu Aging Edition 2022 Whisky

MARS Komagatake Shinshu Aging Edition 2022 is a highly anticipated single malt from Japan’s renowned Shinshu distillery, nestled high in the Japanese Alps. This limited annual release showcases the subtle artistry of Japanese whisky, matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels, sherry butts, and possibly Mizunara oak, reflecting the distillery’s unique blending philosophy. Bottled at a precise strength, this edition typically balances delicate fruit notes—such as apricot and citrus—with deep honeyed malt and a nuanced, sophisticated spice from its aging process. Its exceptional clarity and smoothness are hallmarks of the high-altitude distillation and clean mountain water sources. The 2022 release offers remarkable complexity, designed for the discerning whisky collector and enthusiast seeking an elegant and evolving Japanese expression.
