Mars Maltage Cosmo Blended Malt - Manzanilla Finish (2021)

Für den Cosmo verwendet der Hersteller Hombo Shuzo sowohl eigenen Single Malt Whisky als auch importierte Single Malts aus Schottland. Das Ergebnis ist eine vollmundige Symbiose zweier großer Whiskynationen. Durch das Reifen des Cosmo in Manzanilla Sherry Fässern aus Andalusien ist diese Whisky besonders weich und verfügt über reichhaltige Aromen wie getrocknete Früchte, brauner Zucker und Ahornsirup. Eine leichte Bitterkeit, schöne Harmonien und Schokoladenaromen zeichnen das Finish aus.

Aroma: Trockenfrüchte, brauner Zucker.

Geschmack: Komplex nach Ahornsirup, Nüssen und Schokolade.

Abgang: Mittellang und fruchtig.

Japanischer Whisky

Hombo Shuzo is a traditional producer of alcoholic beverages, founded in 1872. Originally founded to produce shochu, the company applied for a whisky licence in 1949. In 1985, this was achieved and the long-awaited distillery was opened in Shinshu to produce whisky with special Japanese characteristics. The distillery is located in the small village of Miyada high up in the Japanese Alps in Nagano, 798 metres above sea level and not far from Tokyo. Initially, whisky was only produced in winter and the rest of the year was used to produce other spirits. Due to a lack of demand, whisky production was discontinued in 1992. In 2011, Hombo Shuzo ventured a new start in whisky. In the meantime, the company has made a name for itself again on the whisky market. In terms of liqueurs and shochu, the distillery never had any difficulties in selling its products. These have been produced without interruption and are highly regarded in Japan, but also worldwide. This is reflected not least in the fact that the company wins one gold medal after another in global spirit competitions. Hombo Shuzo now has three distilleries in Japan: in addition to the Mars Shinshu Distillery in Nagano, there is also the Tsunuki Distillery and the Chiran Distillery, both located in Kagoshima Prefecture.
