Description

Crafted in honor of Kiichiro Iwai, the visionary behind Japan’s pioneering whisky legacy, Mars Shinshu Kiichiro Iwai Whisky blends American-inspired craftsmanship with Japanese artistry. This California-exclusive spirit is perfect for savoring daily or mixing into classic cocktails like mint juleps or old fashioneds. Made primarily from corn with a touch of malted barley, it’s aged in ex-bourbon barrels to deliver a smooth, approachable profile that balances sweet fruit notes with subtle vanilla warmth.

On the palate, expect ripe pear and quince flavors mingling with hints of red berries, creating a fruit-forward yet refined taste that appeals to both whisky newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts. At 40% ABV, it’s bold enough for neat sipping but versatile enough to elevate crafted drinks without overpowering other ingredients.

Designed for California connoisseurs, this Japanese whisky stands out for its accessible elegance—ideal for those seeking a premium spirit without the steep price tag of aged single malts. Whether enjoyed on its own or as a base for creative cocktails, its harmonious blend of American barrel influence and Japanese precision makes it a standout choice.

Available for pickup at our Santa Rosa store or shipped within California only, this limited-release spirit offers a taste of cross-cultural mastery. Elevate your daily pours or explore its mixability—this Kiichiro Iwai whisky delivers exceptional value and flavor for every occasion.
