IWA IWA 5 Assemblage 4

IWA 5 Assemblage 4 combines elegance and depth, composed of Yamada Nishiki, Omachi and Gohyakumangoku rice. With a polishing degree of 35%, this sake preserves the authenticity of the rice. In Shiraiwa, Toyama, Richard Geoffroy perfected the blend, which unfolds with notes of marzipan, lotus root, coconut, hazelnut and shiitake. Lively maritime accents and a hint of violet lead to a gentle finish with IWA-typical nuances of white and sansho pepper - the experience is refined, weightless, unforgettable. Aging: IWA 5 has the ability to be stored at low temperatures for many years.

Classification of Premium Sake

For high quality sake, rice is polished prior to processing with the goal of eliminating the bran and protein which encase the starch held at the center of the rice grain. The smaller the rice polishing ratio (expressed as a percentage of the original rice weight), the finer and more aromatic the sake. Learn more about the different classes of of Premium Sake...
