One minute whiskey review of Mars Maltage "Cosmo" wine cask finish single malt Japanese whisky. This bottle was brought to the show by @Gimmeabreakman who was visiting his home country of the United States from his current home of Nagoya, Japan.
As you can tell from the video, this whisky came off a big harsh up front, but as it opened up it was quite delicious. The burn faded into a maltiness with waves of sweet fruit from the wine cask finish. We enjoyed several glasses of this and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys finished scotch whiskies such as Glendronach or Macallan.
Overall, I give this a 3.9/5 rocks, it is a very solid whisky - cheers!
