Production Details
The complex flavor profile comes from an uncommon blending process by master brewer-distillers. It combines:
- A 2016 vintage distilled from black koji rice and Miyazaki Beni sweet potatoes.
- A 2019 vintage distilled from white koji rice and Tama Akane orange-fleshed sweet potatoes
Key Tasting Notes
- Nose: Bright and aromatic, featuring a fragrant, colorful blend of tropical fruit (papaya, melon) and apricot.
- Palate: A juicy, plump texture offering a balance of sweet potato sweetness and floral notes.
- Finish: Smooth, earthy finish with lingering flavors of black tea, olive oil, and a rich hint of baker's chocolate.
Serving Suggestions
At 30% ABV, it can be sipped neat to appreciate its rich profile, or mixed into a "shochu soda" (diluted with sparkling water) to highlight its fruity and buttery backbone.
