Tasting notes

Delicate aromas of wild strawberry, juicy white peach, and fragrant honeysuckle gently rise from the glass, inviting you in. On the palate, vibrant notes of crisp green apple and elegant white flowers unfold, beautifully balanced by a subtle savoury depth. The natural effervescence is fine and silky, lifting the flavours with refreshing clarity. A pure, clean acidity carries through to a graceful finish, leaving a gentle impression of citrus zest — adding a subtle, refreshing bitterness that lingers effortlessly. A beautifully poised sparkling sake — vibrant yet delicate, fruit-forward yet wonderfully complex.

Capturing the Fleeting Beauty of Nature in Every Bubble

Classic awa embodies our expression of the beauty of impermanence — a celebration of nature’s ever-changing, transient moments.

Born purely from natural fermentation, each bottle engages all five senses — the appearance, aroma, taste, sound, and texture of its delicate bubbles.These bubbles are naturally formed through in-bottle fermentation, continuously evolving and transforming — even as you drink.

Every step of our brewing process — from rice washing and koji-making to initial fermentation, secondary fermentation, and hand-degorgement — is meticulously carried out using traditional skills and craftsmanship honed in Japan.

These living, ever-changing bubbles invite you to pause, reflect, and savour the ephemeral beauty of life and nature.

FOOD PAIRING

Classic awa is a pleasure to enjoy on its own, but its character shines even more brightly when paired with food. Its delicate, natural effervescence, refreshing notes of fruit, and gentle umami work in harmony to cleanse the palate and elegantly enhance each mouthful.

Cheese pairing: Baron Bigod Truffled

Baron Bigod Truffled is a luxurious Brie-style cheese, handmade in Suffolk from raw Montbéliarde cow’s milk. Rich, creamy, and irresistibly smooth, it conceals a decadent layer of black truffle at its heart, adding an alluring aroma. It is regarded as one of the most indulgent British cheeses available today.

With Classic awa, the pairing is nothing short of exceptional. The fine bubbles gently soften the richness of the cheese, while the sake’s citrus-like fruitiness weaves beautifully with the truffle’s fragrant character, filling the palate with an elegant, vibrant finish. Each sip refreshes, heightening the anticipation for the next bite — a luxurious harmony of flavour and aroma.


Other recommended pairings

* Lightly fried white fish or seasonal vegetables, where the lively bubbles enhance delicate flavours and leave a pure, refreshing finish.

* Richer dishes such as the smoky allure of salmon, the herb-kissed tenderness of grilled chicken, or the melt-in-the-mouth depth of wagyu beef. Classic awa’s subtle umami and refined effervescence beautifully complement the depth of flavour in these dishes.
