Clean and neutral at first but, a subtle, sweet fragrance of star fruits and oranges appears. "Yufuin" refers to the name of a small town on Kyushu island; it is home to a renowned natural spa. The volcanic spring waters produce the best shochu in the world. The Yatsushika Sake Brewery Co., Ltd. releases small batches of high-quality Japanese barley ["mugi"] shochu, which has a clean dry taste and classic barley fragrance.
