At the "Washake Awards 2024" competition held in Hong Kong, our assemblage sake "Assemblage Club 3 CODE NAME: Taro' (Taro Dash)", developed and produced by our company and three Kyoto sake breweries (Masuda Tokubei Shoten, Kitagawa Honke, and Matsui Sake Brewery), won a silver award, alongside many other famous sakes!

More than 2024 items were submitted by wineries from 170 prefectures for the Washu Awards 20, and the entries were subjected to rigorous screening by 16 judges, including the head judge Reeze Choi.

This assemblage opens a new chapter in the world of sake through a miraculous blend that transcends the boundaries of sake breweries. The high evaluations received at last year's Singapore Sake Challenge 2023, this year's Milan Sake Challenge, and Singapore Sake Challenge 2024 demonstrate the new possibilities of assemblage.

What is assemblage? / Infinite flavors born from combinations

Assemblage refers to the traditional technique of blending raw wines, and is the mainstream method in France, Italy, Spain, and other countries. Bordeaux wine and Champagne have always been world representatives, thanks to the complex flavors and aromas that can only be created by combining different wines. It has also become clear that there are flavors in sake that can only be achieved through assemblage, such as layering flavors and rounding off edges. In addition to the fermentation techniques used by the master brewer, assemblage techniques can broaden the flavors of sake even further.

Assemblage Club 01 CODE NAME: Taro' is now available for sale to the general public.
