Product Information: Building upon a rebalancing of the four base botanicals of the drier, flagship Bermutto, Oka Kuru's taken on dry vermouth. OKA Sweet Bermutto incorporates a powerful fifth ingredient: a bitter Japanese plum called ume. Ume’s tart astringency is right at home in this bitter botanical blend and is perfectly complemented and balanced by raw cane sugar from Okinawa. The wine base is Junmai Sake (fermented rice alcohol, not wine). There are five botanicals: Yomogi, yuzu, Kabosu, ume and cane sugar. Yomogi is Japanese wormwood. Yuzu is an acidic aromatic citrus as acidic as a lemon with a flavour that's reminiscent to lemon, grapefruit, and mandarin orange. Kabosu is a very high-acid citrus profile and flavour similar to yuzu and lime. Ume is a tart Japanese green plum. Lastly it's all sweetened with kokuto (Okinawan cane sugar). Oka Kura Bermutto is a uniquely Japanese take on the category of vermouth made from aromatized, shochu-fortified sake. While not technically a vermouth because it is not wine-based, it functions in cocktails as a vermouth should—a botanically-infused, low ABV modifier—and generally bridges a gap between sake, shochu, and vermouth. Maker: Founded by Yuno Hayashi and named for her grandfather, OKA BRAND offers a growing range of distinctly Japanese spirits and liqueurs made from local rice spirits, Junmai sake, and hyper-regional botanicals. Each expression provides not only endless drinking possibilities, but a gateway to Japanese flavours and traditions. Distillery: OKA BRAND spirits and liqueurs are produced by the legendary Tsutsumi Distillery in the Kumamoto Prefecture in Kyushu, Japan. Tsutsumi has been producing shochu for nearly 150 years in the Hitoyoshi Basin just 5 km from the Kuma River, the longest river in Kyushu. It is one of only 28 distilleries certified by the World Trade Organization as a Kuma Shochu producer, a designation similar to the protected designations of origin of Scotch, tequila, and Cognac. The Kuma River is renowned for its reputation as the clearest stream in Japan, lending itself to crafting fine sake and shochu, all from rice grown within the Kuma River system. Influenced by the fortified, aromatized wine producers of Europe while drawing on Japanese tradition, OKA BRAND took the cocktail world by storm with the introduction of their flagship expression, Bermutto. A yuzu liqueur and sweet, ume-based formulation of Bermutto followed, and now with the introduction of rice-based vodkas and gin, OKA offers an even wider range of exceptional products for use in cocktails by the world’s most discerning bartenders and mixologists.

Product Information: Oka Kura Bermutto is a uniquely Japanese take on the category of vermouth made from aromatised, shochu-fortified sake. Technically it's not a vermouth because it is not wine-based, but it works in cocktails as a vermouth should—as a botanically-infusing, low ABV modifier— that bridges a gap between sake, shochu, and vermouth. Oka Kura Bermutto is essentially a dry vermouth. There are four botanicals used in the production of Oka Kura: Yuzu, Kabosu, Sansho peppercorn, and Yomogi. Yuzu is an acidic aromatic citrus as acidic as a lemon with a flavour that's reminiscent to lemon, grapefruit, and Mandarin orange. Kabosu is a very high-acid citrus profile and flavour similar to yuzu and lime. Sansho peppercorn is a peppery and slightly citrusy peppercorn that's relative Sichuan peppercorn only it produces are milder, numbing sensation on the palate. Lastly there's Yomogi – A Japanese wormwood, also known as Japanese mugwort. FYI: Bermutto is a Japanese phonetic spelling of vermouth. The Japanese language has no “v” sound, so the v's in foreign words are written and pronounced with “b” instead.

Product Description: A Tokyo twist on the espresso martini, crafted in shochu and cocoa. From one of Japan’s oldest sake houses, Kitajima Mokachu reimagines the espresso martini through a distinctly Japanese lens. Dark-roast Arabica coffee beans and artisanal cocoa are slowly steeped in rice shochu, producing a rich, smooth liqueur that walks the line between dessert and digestif. The result is bold yet balanced—think bitter chocolate, burnt caramel, and roasted hazelnuts, all lifted by the clean, dry warmth of shochu. Best served chilled, either neat, over ice, or topped with whipped cream for full indulgence. Or pour it over vanilla ice cream for an “arigatou affogato”—a nod to both Italian tradition and Japanese craft. With its intense flavour and low 7% ABV, Mokachu is approachable yet decadent, making it an instant classic for after-dinner drinks or creative cocktails. Crafted in Shiga since 1805, Kitajima’s attention to detail shows in every drop—this is Japanese liqueur at its most playful and polished. Tasting Notes NOSE – Dark and aromatic Bitter chocolate and the bold roast of East African coffee beans. PALATE – Silky and deep Cocoa, burnt caramel, vanilla bean and roasted hazelnut, with mellow rice shochu warmth. FINISH – Clean and satisfying Soft fade of cocoa and espresso, gentle and lingering. Finer Details Style - Liqueur Varietal - Cocoa, Coffee, Rice Shochu Country - Japan Region - Shiga Bottle Size - 720ml ABV - 7% Closure - Screw Cap Serving Suggestion - Serve chilled, over ice, or over vanilla ice cream Storage - Refrigerate after opening

The brewery's unique yeast and top-secret traditional techniques enabled it to be selected as the Imperial New Year's sake for three years from 1948 to 1950. The name "Maboroshi" was given to a special sake made using a unique process that has been handed down since that time. Based on the concept of a food sake, Junmai Ginjo Maboroshi is brewed with Hattan Nishiki, a suitable rice for sake brewing produced in Hiroshima Prefecture, using No. 9 yeast. The refreshing ginjo aroma is elegantly expressed, and the flavour is broadened by ageing to fully bring out the characteristics of Hattan Nishiki, while the mouthfeel is clean and refreshing. The balance of sweetness, umami, acidity and a hint of bitterness creates a refreshing drinking experience with a good finish.

Matured the sake that is brewed in the winter and put out over the summer, unpasteurized,''raw''. A rich taste unique to raw aging was born. The umami is condensed, and it goes well with cheese and other dishes with a strong flavor.

This junmai ginjo has a fruity aroma, a round sweetness that is gentle on the palate, and the full flavor of Yamada Nishiki is well-balanced by the firm acidity. This is a sake to be chilled and enjoyed in a wine glass.
