Tasting Notes
Koshi-No Shinobu opens with a delicate interplay of rice-sweet malt and orchard blossom, underpinned by the subtle influence of Mizunara oak and a whisper of mountain cedar. On the palate, silken layers of honeyed barley, white peach, and toasted sesame unfold with quiet precision, before a lingering finish of sandalwood and gentle spice completes this meditative Japanese expression.
