Mars Japanese Whiskey Iwai Sherry Cask 750ml

Japan's Highest Distillery — Sherry Cask Richness

The Mars Shinshu Distillery sits at 798 meters above sea level in the Japanese Alps — the highest whisky distillery in Japan — where the cold mountain air and pure alpine water create ideal conditions for whisky maturation. The Iwai Sherry Cask expression takes their signature whisky and finishes it in Oloroso sherry casks, adding a layer of dried fruit richness and complexity that elevates the already excellent base spirit.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Rich and fruity. Oloroso sherry leads with dried fruit, raisin, and a warm spice character from the alpine maturation.
• Palate: Full-bodied and complex. Sherry-driven dried fruit and dark chocolate interplay with the clean, mountain-influenced base spirit and a warming spice.
• Finish: Long and warming. Dried fruit and sherry sweetness linger with a satisfying, alpine close.
