Mars

Originally from Japan, the Mars distillery has a history as tumultuous as it is out of the ordinary. Its founder is none other than Kiichiro Iwai, the man behind the departure for Scotland of the famous Masataka Taketsuru and especially owner of a spirits company producing shochu (Japanese brandy). The Shinshu Mars distillery enjoys an exceptional geographical location offering its whisky a singular character.

Perched at 800 meters above sea level in a region with a harsh climate, the distillery benefits from springs of pure water filtered by the mountain for centuries. Another peculiarity is that whisky production only takes place during the winter months. The drop in demand in the 80s forced the distillery to close its doors in 1992 until its reopening in 2011. The first whisky to come out of these new stills naturally takes the name "The Revival 2011".
