The latest release from Mars Whisky is upon us, Single Malt Komagatake Yakushima Aging. As the name indicates it's aged on the small island of Yakushima, a UNESCO World Heritage site and rainforest off the coast of Kyushu. Even though it's only aged 3 years the tasting notes list a strong woody aroma and sweet cinnamon flavor. It's 59% abv and 700ml.
