Mars Komagatake Kohiganzakura Japanese Single Malt

$157.88 Each
The second bottling from the Nature of Shinshu series produced by the eponymous Japanese distillery. The Kohiganzakura honours the cherry blossom prevalent in Japan (and around the distillery itself in particular!). It’s a lightly peated expression with parts of it matured in casks that previously matured Japanese wine. 52% ABV Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt Nose: Marzipan apricot and nectarine a hint of oat cake salinity. Palate: Subtle wafts of tobacco drift between notes of strawberry mint and yet more nectarine. Finish: Quite short and smoke-driven.
