Aoki-Shuzou carefully selects only the best saké with good aging potential every year and reserves it for long-term aging in Kakurei's Yukimuro. The vintage 2019 Junmai Daiginjo was released after five years of aging. The snow aging in the snow chamber gave the saké a softer taste and smoother mouthfeel. Yamada-Nishiki from the Hyogo Special A district 100%, rice polishing rate: 37%.

[2024 Vintage / Art Label]
A sensational sake has arrived from Aoki Shuzou. Selected from the finest sake matured in a snow chamber, it is released under the name “Years Bottle.” Each year, a renowned Japanese artist is commissioned to create the label, and for the fifth edition, the 2024 Years Bottle label was designed by Higuchi Yuko.
Typically, this series features Omachi Junmai-daiginjo. The rice polishing ratio was 48% for the first three editions, but it was refined to 40% starting with the fourth edition. Undoubtedly, every year’s release is excellent, but the fifth edition, the 2024 Years Bottle, is truly exceptional. It is the first time we have encountered a sake that expresses Omachi in this direction and at this level.
*Aoki Shuzou's "Years Bottle" is the project for the coming 100 years, to aim to create a new value of Japanese culture by integration of Sake and Japanese modern art. Released once a year, and label will be drawn by Japanese artists.

New Premium Junmai-Daiginjou from Yahiko-Shuzou. Locally grown Yahiko Yamada-Nishiki 100%. 33% rice polishing rate is the limit of the balance between aroma and taste. "Yahiko" is born from fully fermented moromi under low temperature for a long period. Bottled without filtering, pasteurised with bottle, all processes are done manually, with extreme care that they could think of.
|
The Yamada-Nishiki from Tojo can be likened to Pinot Noir from the Chambertin Grand Cru in Burgundy. Not only does it possess exceptional aroma and flavor, but it also has great ageing potential. This 37 series does not indicate a brewing year (BY), and it is typically released after about three years of ageing in snow chamber. Even after its release, we can expect long-term ageing. This sake is made to order.
