First founded in 1985, the Mars Shinshu distillery was dismantled in 1992 as Japan went into an economic crisis and demand dropped. After reopening in 2011 initially only during the winter, it has now returned to full-time production, save for a short period of closure in the summer designed to preserve the groundwater table. This absolutely magnificent version is peated to 50 ppm and reveals an incredibly fresh expression of complex green tones throughout the tasting.
