In order to make the best use of the original characteristics of the barley, the barley polishing rate is only 10% compared to the usual 35%.
Distillation is carried out at atmospheric pressure and the blending is done at bottling with Japanese spring water to reach an alcohol volume of 25% without filtration.

This Shōchū with notes of nuts is characterised by a rich and intense aroma, burnt cereal, woody notes, wild herbs (génépi), caramelised sugar to the extreme.
The palate is a true caress, rounded, soft, smoky, with indulgent accents of cereals.
