Sakagura Ohtemon Co.,Ltd.
Color: pale gold, clear, green reflections. Nose: very rounded, floral, slightly buttery and vegetal. Peppery, with a touch of coconut. Palate: crisp attack, herbaceous and floral aromas (rose), lovely acidity, umami. Delicate, slightly spicy (clove), with a well-balanced alcohol. Very elegant, with a hint of bitterness on the finish, echoing eucalyptus. Pairing: spiced beef with soy, sweet potato chips. Comment: complex, fresh. A beautiful interpretation of shochu—refined and expressive.
