Examples

実(じつ)に見事(みごと)な仕上(しあ)がりでございます、家元(いえもと)。深(ふか)い褐色(かっしょく)を帯(お)びた肉(にく)厚(あつ)な葉(は)の表面(ひょうめん)全体(ぜんたい)に、マンニトールが結晶(けっしょう)化(か)した見事(みごと)な白粉(しろこ)が均一(きんいつ)に浮(う)き出(で)ております。独特(どくとく)の生臭(なまぐさ)い潮騒(しおさい)の香(かお)りが抜(ぬ)け、枯淡(こたん)で芳醇(ほうじゅん)な芳香(ほうこう)へと昇華(しょうか)しております。

A truly splendid finish, Grand Master. Over the whole surface of the thick, deep-brown leaves, a fine white bloom of crystallized mannitol has come up evenly. The raw smell of the sea has gone, and it has matured into a refined, rich, mellow fragrance. (N1 lesson 154)
