The Story of Aokage Forty-One
Yanagita-san changes the direction of heat entering the still to toast the liquid as it moves, creating distinctive roasty notes. It is distilled at atmospheric pressure with spring water from Miyako no Jo, aged in glass tanks and filtered by hand through custom horsehair strainers, which remove impurities but keep oils and flavor.
Tasting Notes
