An alkaline simple thermal spring (Yunoyama Kataoka Onsen in the foothills of Yunoyama) with a softly slippery, beauty-water character — pH 8.5 at the wellhead is enough to give the skin that characteristic slip. Lightly mineralized at 0.54 g/kg dissolved solids, the water is gentle on the body, with a faint carbonated tang on the tongue that the certificate notes both at the wellhead and three days later in the lab.
