An alkaline simple thermal spring drawn from the Nyunokawa valley. At pH 9.3 it sits in Japan's beauty-water family — strongly enough alkaline to give skin the characteristic slippery feel. Mineralization is light at only 297 mg/kg, so the water reads as soft and gentle rather than chemically loud, with the alkaline pH carrying the sensory signature on its own.
