Kinmon Akita Sake Brewery
Yamabuki Gold Jukusei Koshu
A sake like a blended whisky, both in making and flavour.
In this sake from the Kinmon Akita Sake Brewery, multiple parcels of aged sake as much as eighteen years old are carefully blended into a single assemblage, taking into account the unique characteristics of each vintage. Enjoy like a blended whisky after dinner, or try pairing with a range of cuisine – the Yamabuki Gold has more than enough character to pair with more expressive dishes.
Flavour profile
Like an aged whisky, this sake exhibits great depth and aroma complexity. The powerful attack is accompanied by an elegant, wagashi-like sweetness. A dry, satisfying umami note lingers on the finish. This is a well-balanced Jukusei Koshu (aged sake).

Staff comments
If you’re looking for a sake to pair with chocolate, look no further. A blend of matured sakes, with a minimum of ten years’ maturation, it possesses remarkable complexity and depth with the finish of a dry sherry. A touch of sweetness imbues it with freshness and makes its perfect for pairing with chocolate, elevating it to the next level. Just like pairing whisky with chocolate, this one is for grownups.
