Product details
- Black Koji Influence: The use of black koji mold (kuro-koji) provides a fragrant, bold, and rich aroma that is more intense than typical white koji shochus.
- Sweet Potato Essence: It features the distinct, natural sweetness of Kogane Sengan sweet potatoes, which often carry a scent reminiscent of chestnuts.
- Smoothness: Despite its potency, the aroma is noted for its smoothness, partly because both ends of the sweet potatoes are carefully trimmed during production to minimize undesirable "off" odors.
- Preserved Depth: The spirit undergoes rough filtration, a process that intentionally retains more of the original oils and aromatic compounds of the ingredients, ensuring a full-bodied scent.
