Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Gold
air Nose
Rounder, oilier and perhaps a bit more obviously drying than the Miyagikyo. Notes of coal tar soap, rosehip tea, some aged medicine, lanolin, smoked paprika, some faint mineralic qualities and lightly smouldering notes such as bergamot and lapsang souchong. With time some caraway and couple of chunks of salted liquorice emerge along with a grating of nutmeg. More of these quince and elderflower notes as well – which maybe means it’s a quality derived from the Moscatel? There are green fruits in there as well which become quite forward and luscious with time
restaurant Palate
bigger, fatter and more emphatic than the Miyagikyo. Lightly earthy peat smoke, green pepper, motor oil, camphor, freshly brewed tea, some pear drops and a touch of gentian. Also a pleasing waxiness gives a further sense of body and structure. The Moscatel is certainly more restrained in this one - but then that’s Yoichi for you: pure muscle when it wants to be
timer Finish
Good length full of leafy and earthy notes, green fruits, more soft, whispering smoky notes and a sachet of mulling spices
