Mars steps away from the mainland. The Y.A. #2 is an exquisite testament to island maturation, taking acclaimed single malts from their Shinshu and Tsunuki distilleries and sending them to the remote, rain-soaked Yakushima Island. This unforgiving climate shifts profoundly. Unrelenting humidity and extreme maritime weather accelerate the complex oak interaction, forging a genuinely fascinating, robust profile.
It's a profile that flawlessly captures this rugged terrain. Matured entirely in ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks, this meticulously crafted blend avoids the heavy-handed oak influence that often plagues older stocks, allowing the intricate malt character to shine brilliantly. Expect an orchestration of contrasting elements. Grilled orchard fruits collide with the aggressive salinity of ocean air, delivering a layered, high-wire complexity that demands absolute focus.
These exceptional specifications highlight the release:
- Crafted from a precise marriage of Shinshu and Tsunuki single malts.
- Aged entirely on Yakushima Island for intense maritime terroir influence.
- Peated to an average of 15ppm for a subtle, earthy smoke.
- Bottled at 49% ABV to preserve a robust, oily texture.
