Akkeshi Whisky Distillery and Mars Tsunuki Distillery started whisky production in Hokkaido and Kagoshima respectively in 2016. The two distilleries, both blessed with nature, have exchanged malt whisky and started maturing it in their respective locations. Vatted malt Japanese whisky is made by vatting the two malts matured at the Akkeshi and Tsunuki distilleries in the northern part of Japan. The passion for whisky crossed the north latitude and east longitude, and a special bottle was born.
