In this article, we will introduce 3 sake products that Bar de Mitomi particularly recommends!

Top 3 Sake Offered at the Finest Quality

1. Receiving World’s Attention: Toyama’s Finest Local Sake “IWA5”

Born in the heart of the Champagne region, Dom Perignon's 5th chief brewer, Richard Geoffroy, created the finest sake, IWA5 .

The biggest feature of IWA5 is that it is produced by combining multiple unblended whiskeys using the blending technique of "assemblage". Exactly the method of champagne, the depth and depth of aroma and taste are created.

A unique aroma expressed in a perfect balance, a layered taste that changes in a complex way... It can be said that it is the finest sake experience that represents Toyama.

At Bar de Mitomi, we have a wide range of IWA5 products produced in different years. You can taste and compare each and purchase them as souvenirs.

2. Bar de Mitomi’s Original Sake “Kota”

“Kota” , which is produced at the brewery permanently installed in the store, is a sake liqueur product that is only sold and provided by Bar de Mitomi .

In 2022, as the first step, we will release a product with a “pleasant bitterness” and “refreshing aroma” that Japanese sake does not have, by soaking lemongrass in Toyama’s local sake. It can be enjoyed on the rocks, but there are also a wide variety of ways to drink it, such as splitting it with soda.

The second version, which will be released in 2023, features a refreshing scent of hops soaked in Toyama's local sake.

Bar de Mitomi not only sells products, but also sells sake cocktails using Kota , so please enjoy it.

3. The Most Popular Sake from the Sake Bar:  "KISAKI ∞ (Infinity)"

We would like to introduce the highly recommended product "KISAKI ∞ (Infinity)" from Bar de Mitomi .

This is the most popular product at Bar de Bifumi, which handles sake from all 19 breweries in Toyama.

It is a sake with a fruity and peach-like taste, although it has a fairly mature color. It is easy to drink even for those who have never had the opportunity to experience sake, making it a very popular product.

Yoshinotomo Sake Brewery, which manufactures KISAKI , cultivates, polishes, brews, ages and bottling sake rice in-house as a “domaine of Toyama”. Possessing high-level rice polishing technology, this sake brewery has created the tradition, culture, and technology of Japanese sake since its founding.

We are a team that connects something with Toyama and creates new businesses together with Toyama. If you define “regional revitalization” as creating a sustainable society by making use of the characteristics of each region in Japan to put a brake on the overconcentration of Tokyo, the “regional awakening” that Toyamato is aiming for is completely different. have a concept Instead of being led by the local government or government, many people with a love for Toyama will rediscover the charm of Toyama, take pride in it, and spread it around the world on their own initiative. Ultimately, the main character is “people”, and I believe that the diversity of people mixed together will enhance the appeal of Toyama.
