Iwa 5 Junmai Daiginjo Reserves (720 ml)
The pursuit of a Sake ready for a dialogue with the world while proudly rooted in Japan.
IWA 5 is the creation of Richard Geoffroy a renowned winemaker who gained fame as the Chef de Cave  at Dom Pérignon.
Richard Geoffroyâs pursuit of beauty propelled him to the highest reaches of his profession. Born in the heart of Champagne country, he became the fifth chef de cave for Dom PĂ©rignon Champagne and charted the course of the legendary wine for 28 years.Â
To Richard Geoffroy, Japan has never been an abstraction. Following an initial spark in 1991, countless trips have stoked his love for the country, its culture and its people.Â
IWA, therefore, could never be a sake engineered from abroad, a sake bereft of center. In order to be true to sake, and be a true international sake, IWA needed strong roots, anchored in Japan, and to be made according to traditional methods in a brewery of its own design.
RESERVESÂ
IWA 5 Reserves represents a new frontier: a blend composed entirely of older base components, all individually bottled and matured at Shiraiwa Kura over the years. Such a singular approach reflects a deep commitment to curation and patience. It relies on a growing patrimony of sakes at different stages of maturation, ranging from two to seven years. The average age of the blend is at least four and a half years. Once in the final bottle, Reserves continues to evolve and improve for many years to go.
