IWA 5 “Assemblage 1”
First expression
After an exemplary career in high-end Champagne, IWA founder and maker Richard Geoffroy found a new challenge in sake making and its endless possibilities. “Assemblage 1” is IWA’s first expression. French techniques meet Japanese skill and tradition to marry three rice varieties and five yeast strains. Brimming with umami, this rare junmai daiginjo has aged beautifully. Savor notes of almond, butter and mandarin as you experiment with different temperatures.
