Description
This yamahai junmai genshu, bottled at 18 percent, delivers an earthy, spiced profile with notes of forest floor, nutmeg, chestnut, sweet fennel pollen and matsutake mushroom. Autumn fruit notes of quince and poached pear add a subtle, layered dimension without the alcohol ever feeling heavy handed. This balance and restraint echoes the producer's better known long aged, collectible cellar releases.
