Tasting Notes
Nose: Fragrant Japanese incense and sandalwood lead the way, followed by ripe persimmon, sweet red berries, soft vanilla blossom, and subtle dried stone fruit.
Palate: Silky and refined with layers of spiced orange marmalade, Mizunara oak spice, stewed plum, and delicate honeyed malt balanced by a gentle touch of ginger.
Finish: Long, elegant, and contemplative, leaving lingering impressions of aromatic cedar, white pepper, subtle tobacco leaf, and soft dried orchard fruit.
