IWA 5 Sake Assemblage 4

Crystalline in appearance with a pale silver tint, IWA 5 Assemblage 4 opens with a delicate bouquet of white peach, alpine flowers, and wet stone. The palate is poised and textural, offering layers of Fuji apple, steamed rice, and subtle umami, underpinned by a fine-boned minerality. Silken in texture yet taut in structure, it glides with quiet precision and depth. The finish is long, clean, and resonant, with a soft salinity and lingering echo of lees. A study in balance and craftsmanship, this assemblage reveals the art of sake as composition—elegant, modern, and profoundly nuanced.
