Choryo Yoshinosugi no Taru Omachi Yamahai Junmai

Aged in cedar barrels, this yamahai junmai carries subtle woodsy notes alongside white pepper, dark chocolate, and cookie dough, finishing as one of the drier styles in its range. The tart, lactic character from the yamahai method mingles with the minty, earthy imprint of the cedar cask for a wild, layered profile best enjoyed at room temperature. Made from Bizen Omachi rice polished to 70 percent in Nara, it carries an SMV of +1, acidity of 1.4, and ABV of 14.5 percent.
