Notes - Alpha 1 is named as “Door to the Next Chapter” and it is simply to create 🍶 that Japanese will get to enjoy more. Although designed to have a low alcohol content, Kaze no Mori have expressed an even more fruity and dense flavor and hopes this 🍶 will expand the possibilities of 🍶 in the future and serve as a door to the world of 🍶 for our customers.

Delicate and soft in the mouth with light fizziness dancing on the tongue. Although polished to 70%, this 🍶 is silky smooth and super soft when it envelops the inner cheeks. This only shows the skills of Kaze no Mori and their expertise in using Akitsuho table 🌾 for their 🍶. Slightly sweet while the 🍶 dances within the mouth but living behind a bitter tartness that resembles 🍋 zest.

This was paired during a Japanese teppanyaki dinner @chuyuteppanyaki which consists of live seafood and 🥩. It was a good pairing as the 🍶 has light fizziness to it and helps to reduce the greasy feeling from some of the dishes. I just can’t help but feel that this 🍶 is very versatile and would easily go well with many dishes or just purely enjoying it on its own. Superb!!!
