YASO Absinthe Nagato Taira Issei" supervised by Issei Taira, a researcher and cultivator of Japanese mugwort.
The Japanese mugwort and Japanese huckleberry are grown by Mr. Taira himself.
Furthermore, all parts of the leaf, flower, and stem of the wormwood are used, so the bitterness can be fully felt.
Enjoy "YASO Absinthe Nagato Taira Issei," a blend of the sweetness of aniseed and star anise, the bitterness of nigamogi, and the refreshing coolness of hacca, based on YASO SPIRITS.
【【Message from Mr. Issei Taira of Nagato, who supervised the cultivation and distillation of Japanese mugwort
The wormwood is the main ingredient of absinthe, a plant with small yellow flowers that bloom in the summer.
It takes three years from the time the seeds are sown to reach full maturity, and they are taller than most Japanese, well over 180 cm.
They are called "green monsters" when we see them because they grow so rapidly in a month when they enter the growth phase.
What does the scent of the flower resemble? No similarity comes to mind.
I, for my part, have been calling it a scent that heralds the end of summer in the beginning of August when maturity is at its peak, but I would like you all to open a bottle of "Nagato" and feel it.
Absinthe typically uses many herbs and spices as ingredients.
However, "YASO Absinthe Nagato Taira Issei" is a simple-is-best product with a narrow focus on materials.
The base YASO SPIRITS has a complex flavor, so it may be fun to look for the hidden ingredients behind the wormwood and anise.
It took eight years since the research and cultivation of nigayomogi, but thanks to the efforts of many people, including Echigo Yakuso, it has taken shape.
I can only thank you.
All that remains is to wait for this sake to reach you.
Nagato Taira Issei
