A simple alkaline thermal spring rising in the Tsurumi district of Beppu. Its mineral load is light, so the water reads gentle and low-irritation, with a soft, rounded feel rather than a heavy mineral bite. The alkalinity delivers the slippery touch that places this squarely in Japan's beauty-water family, and it is backed by an unusually generous 120.4 mg/kg of metasilicic acid, which leaves the kind of thin silica film that makes skin feel noticeably smoother afterwards. The wellhead itself ranks among Japan's hottest natural sources.
