Quality & Sensory
Each batch presents a balanced blend of green tea leaves and golden-brown roasted rice kernels. The dry tea carries a warm, toasty aroma with notes of toasted grain and fresh-cut grass. When brewed, the liquor turns a pale golden-green, releasing a nutty, slightly sweet fragrance. The taste is smooth and mellow, with the roasted rice softening the green tea's natural briskness and leaving a clean, gently sweet finish. Cold-brewed, it becomes lighter and more refreshing, with the toasted rice aroma lingering softly.
