■YASO Absinthe Prototype 03
YASO SPIRITS is a liquor made by macerating fresh spearmint, shiso leaves, and rosemary in absinthe, which is made by distilling YASO SPIRITS with wild herbs such as nigger wormwood, aniseed, and star anise.
The spearmint, shiso leaves, and rosemary used in the maceration process are pesticide-free and grown in Myoko, Niigata Prefecture.
In addition to the fresh and invigorating aroma, the liquid color is characterized by the natural tint derived from botanical ingredients.
The change to a milky white color has been improved to achieve an ideal rise.
■YASO SPIRITS LEMON
The fresh lemongrass aroma of the rare Maqaw and the fresh, whole, domestic, pesticide-free lemon botanicals give the product the flavor of a fresh lemon.
