Detailed Description
Detailed Description
In the subtropical south of Japan, distillates mature at temperatures ranging from -2°C in winter to 36°C, which shortens the aging time. The single malt from the second fill bourbon barrel reached its aromatic maturity after just three years. Connoisseurs come at cask strength 61% vol. to fully enjoy the aromas of soft vanilla, crème brûlée, caramel and sandalwood from the second fill bourbon barrel.
Mars Tsunuki 2017 Tasting Notes
Nose: Full and smooth. Very spicy at first.
Palate: Clean and lively. Vanilla, flowers, barley and fresh fruit.
Finish: Long and concentrated. First strongly medicinal and spicy, then we find an intense smoke before the vanilla pairs perfectly with the aromatic plants.
Distillery Information
Hombo Shuzo is part of the massive Hombo Group, a conglomerate with interests spanning multiple industries: combinis, logistics, retail, foodstuffs, and of course alcohol. Is Tsunuki Distillery the company’s second, or fourth whisky distillery? Both: it’s the second active one, and their fourth in company history. Hombo Shuzo got into the whisky business in 1949. But they didn’t start actually distilling their own whisky until 1960, and that was at the company’s Yamanashi Factory. That lasted until 1969. Distillation resumed in 1981, but this time at the company’s Kagoshima Factory. That Kagoshima Factory went dark (for whisky, anyway) in 1985 upon completion of Mars Shinshu. Famously, Mars Shinshu itself went through a hiatus from 1992 to 2011. And finally, from 2016, Shinshu Distillery is joined by Tsunuki Distillery, bringing whisky-making home (again) to Kagoshima prefecture.
