It's the 2019 edition of the wonderful annual limited edition single malt from Mars Shinshu! The no age statement whisky was drawn from American oak bourbon barrels, just like its 2018 predecessor, with subtle peated influence in there still. It's all bottled up at 48% ABV, packed full of citrus, fruit and floral notes.
Polished oak and a pinch of tobacco, with clove-studded orange and dried stone fruit. Floral honey appears alongside a dash of white pepper.
Creamy notes of white chocolate and cashew nuts, with a vibrant burst of citrus juice and peels, leading into caramelised nuts and chilli pepper heat. Salted caramel leads into orchard fruit and a suggestion of smoke.
Apricot jam and freshly squeezed oranges, with salted, toasted (if slightly burnt) nuts.
