MARS MALT Le Papillon Single Cask Ooruri-shijimi
Single Cask Release (599 Bottles)
"MARS MALT Le Papillon" is a series that captures the splendor of Japan's natural environment and its four distinct seasons—which shape our whisky's maturation—through the motif of butterflies native to Japan.
The first release is themed after the "Oomurasaki" (Great Purple Emperor), which inhabits Nagano Prefecture.
Imagining the beautiful sight of its vibrant blue-violet wings in flight, we carefully selected a single cask of fragrant, elegant malt whisky.
Distilled in 2012 in the cool climate of Mars Komagatake Distillery (formerly Mars Shinshu Distillery) and matured in an American White Oak cask, this single cask single malt whisky is bottled at natural cask strength, non-chill filtered.
K. Hombo:"The beautiful sky-blue butterfly I encountered in Shinshu in 1973 turned out to be the Oomurasaki. It is said that this butterfly is now on the brink of extinction. I hope to see that beautiful blue flight once again in the nature of Shinshu.To dedicate a cask to the Oomurasaki I met back then, I selected a mellow malt whisky distilled at Shinshu Distillery in 2012."
