IWA 5 - Assemblage 4 (pre-order)
Our new Assemblage 4 took Founder-Maker Richard Geoffroy on his own journey into the soul of IWA – finally making it at the Kura in Toyama, in the serenity of the doma symbolically positioned between the rice fields and the brewing vats. IWA keeps pushing the envelope. The three-weeks of the Assemblage process resulted again in evolution, one further exploring the direction developed from A1 through A4, a step completed in the spirit of singularity, sophistication and intricate layering.
-words from IWA Sake
IWA 5 - Assemblage 4 Kimoto Junmai Daiginjo / IWA 5, Toyama |
The experience: This elegant and full bodied sake covers a lot of ground. It's both fruity and custardy, while also savory, with notes of shiitake mushrooms and hazelnuts. The producer encourages playing around with temperature (and serving vesssels). When warmed, its rich acidity softens and the brew becomes silty and nutty. When chilled, the sake tightens, making it a great option for lighter foods for the spring and summer. Process: Predominantly Kimoto Ingredients: 35% polished Yamadanishiki, Gohyakumangoku, Omachi. Five different yeast strains. Storage: keep refridgerated |
