Supported passage

Broom describes mizunara as porous, scarce, and hard to cooper, with mature aromatic character often deployed as one component rather than as the whole whisky.

Attribution and limits

Source supports the author's account, not a universal frequency claim about use. His18-year minimum for aloeswood character, sensory acidity claim, botanical explanation and historical dates need corroboration; do not teach them as universal thresholds or measured chemistry. The wood photograph illustrates grain structure without proving permeability or aroma causation. Useful for discussing cost, cask performance and component intensity separately.
