This is the undiluted sake of "Choryo Honnjozo Yoshino-ceder-barrel 1992," which is also well-known for being served aged and warm.

By comparing the two, you can feel the difference between barrel-aged and unaged varieties.

It has been carefully stored at approximately 15°C in the underground air-conditioned storage facility at Choryu Shuzo Yao Head Office since 1992. In order to retain the flavor of aging, the sake is bottled as is without adding water.

Most important thing in storing Japanese Sake, both matured and fresh, is to shield your bottles from UV ray, thus we suggest store them in places where sunshine would not reach.
Also excessive vibrations could do harm to the quality of sake and should be avoided.
In order to prevent unexpected leakage, we recommend the bottles be kept upright, or liquid surface be below bottle-cap level.

Most after-dinner matured sake, with very dark colors, could be stored at room-temperature.
For other matured sake, if you would like to keep the maturation level similar to the level upon your purchase, or you prefer very slow maturation after purchase, we suggest store the bottles at temperature level similar to wine cellar (10-15 degrees centigrade) or below.

If you would like them to mature more, you could store them at normal-to-low room temperature (15-23 degrees centigrade). Storing in you closet during not-so-hot seasons and relocate them in the vegetable sections of your refrigerator during summer would be one option.

For orders from within Japan, we will send out the ordered items within 3 days from receipt of your order, except for festive seasons such as year-end holidays and golden week.
For orders from outside Japan, please make inquiry by mail (info@1910kan.com)

Tasting comments

  • Nobuhiro Ueno
    (Juku to Kan Bar Master / Permanent Director of the Toki Sake Association)

    The top is nutty, with aromas of dried apricot, fig, and mushroom.
    The first thing you notice when you put it in your mouth is a pleasant acidity. After that acidity is felt on the tip of your tongue, the aroma of dried fruit is layered and conveyed to you as a taste.

    It leaves a moderate bitterness and a lingering sourness after it goes down your throat.
    When eaten with oily Chinese cuisine, it provides a balanced and delicious meal.
    It has a relatively crisp finish and is easy to drink, so when enjoyed with a meal it cleanses the mouth and makes the meal more delicious and enjoyable.

    If you are having it after a meal, it is recommended to pair it with something sweet and rich, such as chocolate.
