About this listHombo Shuzo
Hombo Shuzo is a Kagoshima drinks company founded in 1872 that makes its whisky under the Mars name at two distilleries, plus maturation cellars such as the Mars Yakushima Aging Cellar. Its first distillery was established in 1985 in Miyada Village, Nagano, at the foot of Mt. Komagatake, and was renamed from Mars Shinshu Distillery to Mars Komagatake Distillery in 2024. Mars Tsunuki Distillery opened in November 2016 in Minamisatsuma, Kagoshima, where the company began. The Mars Single Malt Komagatake Edition was long sold as a limited release once a year, but in July 2025 Hombo Shuzo made Komagatake a core single malt supplied throughout the year. The Komagatake IPA Cask Finish appears as a separate bottling each year, listed by its bottling year. The Tsunuki Edition is a yearly limited single malt from Mars Tsunuki, named for its year of sale; the 2025 Edition went on sale in January 2025 at 49% ABV.
