Mars Shinshu: “KOMAGATAKE”
Nature of Shinshu Series Kohiganzakura

Okay let’s this out of the way – right away. Yes – this is not a single malt scotch…BUT it is new and in very limited quantity so we thought you should know about it too.  This is the second edition of Mars’ Komagatake Nature Of Shinshu series – “Kohiganzakura” – named for the Cherry Blossum – released in Japan in late November 2016.  Bottled again at 52%, it includes some lightly peated single malt distilled at Mars’ Shinshu distillery in 2013 that was matured in ex-Japanese wine casks.  PRICE: $180/bottle – LIMITED AVAIL

anCnoc: 18 Year Old

The anCnoc 18 Year Old has matured in Spanish oak ex-sherry casks & American oak ex-bourbon barrels and has been bottled in its natural form, neither chill-filtered nor colored. As a result this dram may develop a light haze with the addition of water or if kept at a cold temperature. This haze is a natural characteristic of non chill-filtering.

Color: Bronzed amber.
Nose: Gentle spices and intense sweetness of dried fruits are topped with chocolate, ripe oranges and oiled leather.
Taste: Full-bodied and bold, aromatic spices, fruit loaf and candied lemon are followed by a surge of vanilla, honey and caramel. The finish transforms from peppery and hot to deliciously sweet and smooth.
PRICE: $116/btl
