About this whisky
Distilled above the clouds in Nagano’s Alps, this limited edition 2018 Komagatake isn’t just a whisky, it’s a fleeting moment in Japan’s whisky renaissance. Rare, complex, and alpine clean, it’s a bottle for those who collect with purpose.
Tasting Notes
Tasting Profile
Nose: Delicate and fresh, honeyed pear, white peach, and a breeze of alpine flowers. A clean yet layered introduction.
Palate: Silky texture, unfolding into vanilla cream, dried apricots, and roasted chestnuts. Balanced with hints of spice and subtle smoke.
Finish: Elegant and persistent, soft oak, citrus oils, and a mineral clarity that lingers like cold mountain air.
Serving Suggestions
Enjoy neat to explore the altitude driven nuance. A few drops of water tease out the fruit and floral notes but keep it unchilled to preserve the subtlety.

Brand: Mars | Category: Japanese Single Malt | ABV: 48% | Origin: Japan | Vol: 700ml
Production Details

Background & Facts
Interesting Fact
Mars’ distillation schedule is seasonal, they pause operations in summer due to the heat, making every drop of Komagatake rarer by design.
Distillery Background
Mars Shinshu Distillery, tucked in the Japanese Alps, is the crown jewel of Hombo Shuzo. While rooted in shochu heritage, their whisky program is pioneering, driven by climate science, small batch precision, and a relentless pursuit of purity. The Komagatake line is their flagship statement: rare, elegant, and defiantly Japanese.
More Information
Perfect For
A celebration with meaning. The kind of dram you pour when the room is quiet and the moment deserves permanence. Perfect for those who collect not to impress but to preserve legacy.
Expert Notes
This bottle is part of Mars’ acclaimed annual releases, small-batch, never repeated. Revered by whisky critics for its clarity, finesse, and maturation style, it sells out fast in Japan and rarely reaches international shelves.
