Nose is rich, complex, with accents of fennel, licorice, pineapple, fig, candied persimmon, fermented pear, cocoa, narazuke (small fermented melons).
Mouth feeling is round, smooth, with dominant notes of pear, vanilla, cocoa.
Our perfect pairings: we recommend this shochu with a chocolate dessert, a poached pear, a semi-confit quince, or as a digestive in an iced glass. Served at 18-19°C, it will also be remarkable with a grilled duck breast, a wild duck or a duck in blood.
