Mars Shinshu Whisky 45
Mars Iwai 45 is a Japanese blended whisky known for its versatility in cocktails and a flavor profile influenced by American bourbon. It's a higher proof version of the original Iwai whisky, with notes of vanilla, butterscotch, baked apples, and strawberry on the nose, followed by ripe pears, quince, chocolate, and toffee on the palate. The finish is pleasantly sweet and lingering, according to some retailers.
