Product Description
Mars Iwai Blue 750 ML // 40% // 80 Proof
Japan's highest distillery at 800 meters in Miyata village in Nagano Prefecture, situated between the north and south Alps of Japan. Mars Shinshu distillery was founded in 1985 by Hombo Shuzo Ltd. The tasting notes are sweet with fruit flavors like pear and quince.
Kiichiro Iwai (pronounced "E-Y") is the namesake of this flagship blended whisky from Mars. Distilled in Nagano at their Komagatake distillery, this blend takes its inspiration from the great whiskies of the United States. Iwai Whisky is blended primarily from grain with the complexity of malted barley being the supporting component. Matured entirely in ex-bourbon barrels, Iwai Whisky is at once approachable and robust without sacrificing flavor. This is a blend that will surely serve as the perfect introduction to the wide world of modern Japanese Whisky and create fans of Mars for years to come.

Mars Whisky
Located between Japan’s soaring Southern Alps and the towering Central Alps, at just over 2,600 feet, Mars Shinshu is Japan’s highest whisky distillery. The Hombo family have been distilling for more than a century and added whisky to their repertoire in 1949. At that time, the distillery was located in the Tsunuki region of Kagoshima Prefecture on the southern-most island of Kyushu.
Until 1984, it was the southernmost whisky made in Japan, which ended when the Hombo clan moved the distillery to the idyllic alpine setting of Miyada village in southern Nagano Prefecture, Central Japan. They chose this site for its cool temperature, which slowed maturation, and the plentiful soft granite-filtered snowmelt-fed aquifers. A beautiful choice.
In 2016, Hombo Shuzo reopened and introduced new pot stills to their first distillery location in Kagoshima, now known as the Mars Tsunuki Distillery, once again Japan’s southernmost distillery. They also built an aging facility on a tiny island known as Yakushima, a National World Heritage site, where they now age spirits from both Shinshu and Tsunuki distilleries.
