Запах
Докладно
Цікавий факт
Kaya (Torreya nucifera) wood Go boards are considered the finest in the world. A single thick kaya board can cost over $10,000. The wood's color deepens to golden amber over decades of play, and its faint, pleasant aroma is released each time stones are placed -- providing a subtle sensory dimension to the game.
