Tasting Notes

Nose

Quietly extraordinary. Sandalwood, incense smoke, dried apricot and coconut shavings. A whisper of Japanese pear and a faint, distant note of green tea.

Palate

Silky and aromatic. Honey, vanilla, sandalwood and a flicker of pine resin. The mizunara signature blooms mid-palate — temple incense, candied ginger and orchard fruit — without ever overwhelming the underlying Hanyu sweetness.

Finish

Long and contemplative. Sandalwood and dried mango linger alongside a soft cedar warmth and a final dusting of green spice.

Expert Review

9/10

Hanyu spirit finished in Japanese mizunara oak — sandalwood, incense, and the unmistakable temple-perfume of Japan's most prized cask wood.
