    Aged and matured for 5 years, with a woody, vanilla fragrance specific to barrel aging and a smooth mouth feel. The complex, mellow flavor complements sweet, rich dishes, such as oyakodon and teriyaki, and pairs well with fried foods like katsu and tempura. For a new twist on a winter classic, make it the base for a hot toddy and add a splash of yuzu juice.
