3rd Party Tasting Notes
The sweet smell of fruits and chocolate matches well with the citrus acidity of lemongrass, so you can enjoy a balanced smell and throat.

Kurayoshi, which faces Oyama, has high-quality water that is indispensable for making whiskey. Kurayoshi is said to be the source of the word "living good", but as the climate, the temperature difference is large on the side of the Sea of ??Japan, and the aging of whiskey also progresses faster than at the main site. It is no exaggeration to say that whiskey is made naturally. Although it is a distillery built with a small number of staff, we will continue to work together as we wish to deliver better things to everyone's hands.

High-quality water is essential for making whiskey, but the process of aging in barrels is also an important process. We are researching to be able to produce a wide variety of original liquor using wine casks and sherry casks, etc., in some cases using mizunara and sakura for casks. After the process of ripening in various barrels, we produce a wide variety of original sake, and we work hard every day to deliver whiskey with various flavors.
