About this bottle
Iwai Tradition Finished in Napa Wine Cask is a Japanese whisky from Mars Shinshu Distillery, taking their Iwai Tradition blend and giving it extra maturation in barrels that previously held Napa Valley wine. That wine-cask finish is the defining detail here, layering red-fruit and light tannin notes over the base whisky's grain sweetness. Expect a nose of dried berries and vanilla, a soft, fruit-tinged palate, and a mellow, faintly winey finish. It's a distinctly Mars Shinshu approach - the distillery is known for creative cask experimentation - and it suits drinkers curious about wine-finished whisky rather than classic Scotch-style profiles.
How to drink Iwai Tradition Napa Wine Cask
Neat is the best way to catch the wine-cask fruit; a splash of water can help if the finish feels tight.
