IWA’s First Blend of Aged Sake

“IWA Reserves is radiant, with a fascinating duality of maturity and energy. It pushes IWA’s signature balance and complexity to another level.”  — Richard Geoffroy, Founder of IWA

At the forefront of innovation and experimentation, IWA continues its journey through the world of ultra-premium sake with its pioneering new release: IWA’s first blend of aged sake. 

IWA Reserves is crafted from a blend of carefully matured sake, aged on average 4-5 years, with the oldest dating back to 2017. The result is a harmonious and textured expression shaped by time, balance, and patience.

While IWA’s signature Assemblage bottlings highlight a unique moment in time, IWA Reserves reveals the depth and continuity of IWA’s timeless vision. A conclusion of years of experimentation, this complex patchwork embodies a fascinating duality — maturity and vitality — and will continue to evolve over time in the bottle.

At its core, IWA Reserves opens with an unparalleled array of pear, plum, bouquet garni, buttered brioche, white floral, pastry cream and tertiary undertones of dark chocolate, black garlic, cocoa, chocolate truffle and white pepper. The finish is vibrant and lingering, offering a sensory-encompassing experience upon first sip, while its labyrinth of potential will continue to uncoil and evolve for years to come. 

Above all, IWA Reserves is an invitation to step into the evolving dialogue of sake: a bridge between heritage and innovation, honoring the past while looking boldly toward the future. Elegant yet profound, the soulful and energetic structure of IWA Reserves promises to spark convivial moments and thoughtful dialogue.
