Tasting
How it drinks
- Sight
- Light golden amber with a warm, inviting hue.
- Nose
- Delicate floral notes with hints of white peach and a subtle grainy sweetness. Gentle oak undertones with a whisper of vanilla.
- Palate
- Smooth and refined with a creamy mouthfeel. Flavors of honeyed grain, dried fruit, and a light touch of spice. Well-balanced with a soft transition from palate to finish.
- Finish
- Medium-length finish with lingering sweetness, gentle oak, and a faint mineral note that echoes the Japanese terroir.
Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
