The next frontier

Taking in the aromas of “Assemblage 5” is like strolling through trees of pear and pine; bushes of raspberry and rose. A gentle astringency follows on the palate, evolving into a dry minerality with a hint of citrus and earthiness. Various sake brewed with a combination of three rice types and five yeast strains are artfully blended together to achieve such a dynamic journey of flavor.

Savory snacks are a classic pairing with genshu (undiluted sake). For sake ware, we recommend simple designs that present the pure quality of sake.
