Product details
IWA 5 Reserves Junmai Daiginjo with Gift Box represents a distinctive chapter in IWA’s pursuit of blending innovation and maturation. Created under the direction of IWA’s blending philosophy, this special release is composed entirely of aged base components, each individually bottled and matured at Shiraiwa Kura in Japan. Drawing on a carefully curated collection of components aged between two and seven years, with an average maturation period of at least four and a half years, Reserves reflects a thoughtful approach to time, selection, and balance. The oldest components date back to 2017, highlighting the patience and long-term vision behind this expression. Presented in an elegant gift box, IWA 5 Reserves offers a refined choice for collectors and those seeking a distinctive Japanese gift.
The sensory profile unfolds through layers of white florals, pear, and plum, complemented by bouquet garni and buttery brioche. Pastry cream adds a rich, rounded dimension, while black garlic, cocoa, and dark chocolate bring deeper complexity. Toasted notes and a touch of white pepper complete the profile, creating an intricate balance of floral, fruit, savory, and gently toasted characteristics.
