The Mars Tsunuki Aging Komagatake is a single malt whisky distilled at the Mars Shinshu distillery, located in the highlands of Nagano, Japan at an elevation of over 800 meters. This distillery, recognized for being one of Japan's highest altitude whisky distilleries, was originally founded in 1985. After a long hiatus, production resumed in 2011. Due to its relatively small production volume, the demand for Mars Shinshu whiskies often exceeds their availability.
In 2016, the Hombo Shuzo Group expanded their whisky production by opening a second distillery in the Tsunuki district of Kagoshima, on the southern island of Kyushu. The Tsunuki distillery, characterized by its warmer and more humid climate, facilitates a faster aging process for the whisky.

Bottled at cask strength with an ABV of 54%, it allows consumers to dilute it according to their preference.
