Azakura's Hiyaoroshi presents a golden hue and a sweet aroma with hints of herbs and spices. It is medium-bodied and exhibits a slightly higher viscosity. The flavour profile leans toward the sweet side, with minimal acidity and an herbal bitterness that lingers on the mid-palate and throughout the finish. When served chilled, it gradually becomes smoother and gentler as it reaches room temperature.
