KURA SHERRY BARREL AGED SAKE 375ml (2024 HONJOZO)

£30.00

The latest vintage of KURA - this time we’ve aged in sherry cask!

This 2023/24 brew has undergone ambient ageing in oak sherry cask for 21 months. After nearly two years in barrel, the sake was lightly filtered, bottled and pasteurised. Then finally matured in bottle - until now!

A rich, smooth barrel aged honjozo sake; this undiluted genshu has notes of dried fruit, nuts, molasses and woody vanilla.

A warm embrace - enjoy lightly chilled with cured meats, cheese or chocolate.

Medium/Sweet -13 SMV
Gohyakumangoku rice (Toyama, Japan)
Polishing rate 70%
#701 Japanese sake yeast
20.0% ABV / 375ml

Sulphite-free | Gluten-free | Preservative Free | Vegan

Accolades of previous KURA releases:

  • Silver Medal IWC 2022

  • Bronze Medal IWC 2023

  • Gold Medal IWC 2024 (the first ever non-Japanese sake to receive a gold!)
