I have never tried the Momoyama II, however, I have several friends that have, who also love and cherish the original Momoyama. They all tell me the it does have a distinct similarity to the original, but it has a slightly sweeter overall flavor and a slightly fruitier flavor profile.
The difference is thought to be that the ingredients, although the same by name, come from different regions and as a result the flavors are slightly different. Momoyama II was produced in a limited run by McBaren. They were given the recipe by Japan Tobacco so they could produce it for release in Japan. It was released in 100g tins
