Kiso-Komagatake Aromas of stewed plum, cherry pit, and golden raisin lead to a palate of umeshu and dried ginger underscored by fresh cinnamon and lingering, earthy mace Non-chill filtered; 43% ABV This is the fourth release in the Lucky Cat “Double Individuals” subset of Mars’s cult-coveted series dedicated to the distillery cats owned by President Kazuto Hombo. That’s right: Topping off their solo careers as featured felines, these duos have teamed up to elicit twice the delight, like Queen & David Bowie, George Michael & Elton John, Dolly Parton & Kenny Rodgers. In the case of Choco and Luna, this new edition was blended to reflect the contrasting but complementary characters of the cats themselves.
