Recently awarded a gold medal at the TWSC 2023 (Tokyo Whisky & Spirit Competition), this first Mars Whisky release is a Blended Malt composed of single malts from the Shinshu and Tsunuki distilleries, aged in the Yakushima winery and mainly in bourbon casks.
Mars The Y.A.#1 is distinguished by its exotic, marine character. Olfactory notes include fruity aromas of orange, candied pineapple and banana. Notes of salt and vanilla add delicacy and complexity, while the gentle caramel fragrance maintains a harmonious balance. On the palate, juicy fruit lingers, offering continuity with the aromas perceived on the nose. The richness of the flavors transports tasters to the heart of Yakushima's lush flora, while the salinity recalls the presence of the Pacific Ocean that surrounds the island. The finish of this Mars The Y.A. #1 is marked by a fruity profile, which forms the common thread of this whisky, supported by soft, delicate malty notes.
Yakushima has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993. Its climate is warm, tropical and characterized by high humidity. It is often said that it rains almost every day of the month. This extreme climate offers Mars a unique aging environment, different from that of Shinshu and Tsunuki, with a higher proportion of angels.

The brand Mars Whisky
