Mars Tsunuki Peated
マルスウイスキー 津貫 ピーテッド
About
A peated expression from Hombo Shuzo's Tsunuki Distillery in southern Kagoshima. The warm subtropical climate creates rapid, intense maturation that gives this peated malt a unique character: bold smoke wrapped in tropical sweetness. Released in limited annual batches.
Where to Buy
Tasting Notes
Campfire smoke, sweet vanilla, pear, caramelised apple, hints of citrus and red bean pastry.
Peat smoke balanced with tropical fruit sweetness. Rich, full mouthfeel with layers of caramel, dark chocolate, and gentle spice.
Medium to long with smoky warmth fading into lingering sweetness and dried fruit.
What People Are Saying
Japanese Whisky Dictionary review: bold peat with Kagoshima subtropical fruit character. Well-integrated smoke that does not overpower. Interesting comparison to Scottish peated malts.
Growing fanbase sees this as Japan's answer to Islay peat. The tropical fruit notes from Kagoshima's warm climate mixing with peat smoke is genuinely unique. Limited releases sell out quickly.
