Product details
Hailing from a venerable house dedicated to elevating rice into refined expressions, this premium release reflects generations of patient artisanship. Each step is executed with meticulous care — from highly polished grains to slow, precisely controlled production — resulting in an elegant, crystalline character. The overall personality is restrained and refined: a polished texture, floral lift, and a clarity that highlights finesse over force, making it feel both ceremonial and approachable.
A full bouquet of rice blossoms greets the senses, immediately suggesting a mellow yet exquisitely delicate personality. Soft, pillowy notes of marshmallow gently soothe the palate, while a caress of floral sweetness and a subtly rounded mouthfeel create a comforting harmony. The balance leans toward refinement: delicate sweetness supported by a silky texture, finishing with a clean, lingering impression that leaves a serene, airy aftertaste.
