Mars Whisky: The Lucky Cat Double Individuals Hana & Choco

"The Lucky Cat" is a series of blended whiskies featuring cats with rich personalities, created using Mars Whisky's blending techniques. The 9th edition of The Lucky Cat series features two of the distillery's beloved cats, this time a pair of sisters. The two have completely different looks and temperaments which the skilled blenders of Komagatake have reflected in the whisky. Hana is a big gentle baby, represented by warm approachability of oloroso and wine casks. Choco is a bit more rambunctious, with a real energetic disposition that is represented by the boldness of Spanish Oak. Opposites attract, and like these sisters huddling together on cold winter nights, their namesake blended whisky is a reflection of individuals mellowing together.

K.Hombo: "Hana and Choco will be 7 years old in April this year. Hana is a gentle and spoiled cat, and Choco is an active wonder girl. They are completely different in personality and appearance, but when they sleep together on a cold winter night... They are sisters after all! The soft sweetness and fruitiness of Oloroso sherry barrels and wine barrels, and the aggressive structure of the Spanish oak barrels make this blended whiskey reminiscent of the two sisters, the kind older sister and the tomboyish younger sister."
