This Jyuku to Kan (sake matured)-original blend features sake matured for ten years or more from Daruma Masamune's extensive collection. Only the best vintages were carefully selected to create a masterpiece boasting a perfect balance and depth of flavor.
Its reddish amber color is indicative of that depth.
In the mouth, pleasant bitterness and acidity start at the tip of the tongue, and after the finish, a sweetness returns and spreads out along with the aroma.
With such complexity, it is a great companion to spare ribs or oily Chinese dishes.

Tasting comments

Hidekazu Ishiwata
(Former National Tax Bureau Chief Appraiser)Clear caramel color.
The top has a burnt aroma and is slightly oily.
Cocoa-like bitterness, with a hint of lactic acid.
Grainy nuances and a long-lasting aftertaste. -
Akiko Toda
(Director of ITTEKI, Japan Sake and Meat Research Institute)What a deep aroma. It smells like brandy-based plum wine. It has a very smooth, thick and sparkling texture. It gives an elegant and sophisticated impression. The acidity is very pleasant, and the sweetness is just right. I would like to savor it slowly as an after-meal drink.
I would recommend pairing it with bean-to-bar chocolate with its fruity nuances, or with honey-soaked nuts. -
Yuji Yamauchi
(Yushima Tenjinshita Sushi Hatsu 4th generation / 1st JSA SAKE DIPLOMA competition winner)Solid coloring. You can feel the deep aroma of sugar, such as brown sugar, dark rum, and brandy. The aroma balance is reminiscent of whiskey and brandy, but the volume of alcohol seems to be replaced by sweetness.
"The depth of aged balsamic vinegar and melted couverture." -
Christopher Hughes
(WSET Sake Educator)Complex and pronounced aroma of brandy butter, treacle, soy, coffee, dark chocolate, and leather. Buttery texture with nice balance of acidity and sweetness, and plenty of umami to keep you wanting more. Beautifully soft around the edges with a deep center. A luxurious koshu with a long meaty finish with notes of brown sugar. Definitely one to pair with cheese!

Nobuhiro Ueno
(Juku to Kan Bar Master / Permanent Director of the Toki Sake Association)Its slightly reddish amber color suggests depth of flavor.
The orthonasal aroma is fragrant, savory and syrupy with a slight hint of acidity.
In your mouth, a pleasant bitterness and acidity starts at the tip of your tongue, and after it goes down your throat the sweetness returns and spreads along with the aroma.
This complex drink goes well with spare ribs or oily Chinese food.
