Description
Jousenwakamidori Kakudaru from Iiyama Shuzo in Nagano is the above-standard (josen) Wakamidori sake stored and served in a square cedar cask (kakudaru), combining the brewery's regional craft with the traditional aromatic influence of Japanese sugi cedar. The cedar imparts a fragrant, woody note that distinguishes taru sake as a unique sensory category, historically associated with ceremonial and festive drinking occasions in Japan. This expression offers an accessible entry into cedar-cask sake within the josen tier of the Wakamidori lineup.
