"Toki no Aya" Vintage 2005, 2006, 2008 Sweet Potato Shochu and Barley Shochu 3-Brand Set　3 bottles of 300ml

2007年 丹後蔵

グラスに注いだ瞬間に広がるのは、スミレや白い花を思わせる爽やかなフローラル香。芋焼酎でありながら芋らしさは控えめで、清らかさと爽やかさを纏います。 口に含むと、柔らかな甘みがしっかりと広がり、雑味のない透明感ある味わいが続きます。 余韻はとても長く、ほんのりと残る甘さが心地よく後を引き、古酒ならではの穏やかな深みを感じさせます。

2008年 Marunishi

The full-bodied taste of the undiluted liquor is felt straight through, and then a spicy aroma similar to pepper rises from behind. Once that spiciness subsides, the sweetness of the potato shochu slowly fills your mouth.

醸造元：Marunishi Sake Brewery　創業1916年　Kagoshima PrefectureShibushi City
The eastern part of Kagoshima Prefecture, where the Shirasu Plateau spreads, is home to high-quality sweet potatoes. Marunishi Shuzo uses these potatoes to brew potato shochu using traditional methods with a small number of people. The taste and aroma can only be achieved by brewing in earthenware jars, as they have done since the brewery was founded. Marunishi Shuzo is one of the few breweries that focuses on aging.

2013年 天星

圧倒的な芋の存在感、花のように香り立つ芳醇。2013年に仕込まれ、時を経てふくよかに熟した天星。グラスを傾けた瞬間、濃密な芋の旨みが広がり、その奥からフローラルな香りが静かに立ちのぼります。

Hishida, Osaki-cho, a tropical area, is the land where the softest water springs out, the best in Kagoshima Prefecture. The "Tensei" potato shochu, which makes use of this water, is characterized by its soft, smooth taste. The rice used for the rice koji and the main ingredient, sweet potatoes, are all grown and harvested by specific contracted farmers.
