UZUME Taru Sake

UZUME Taru Sake – Traditional Taru Flavor

A Celebratory Sake Fragrant with Tradition

As you open the bottle, a gentle wave of cedar aroma rises—
a sensation as if the curtain of a sacred kagura dance has just lifted.
It’s solemn, uplifting, and unmistakably Japanese.

This special sake is aged in cedar barrels, drawing on the rich character of UZUME’s classic “Iwadono Mai” brew.
The robust umami and woody aroma melt into each sip, evoking a nostalgic landscape of Japanese tradition.

A Flavor Rooted in the Forest

Cedar barrel-aged sake is a time-honored style in Japan, often reserved for Shinto rituals and celebratory occasions.
This particular brew fuses the deep, mellow flavor of a Tokubetsu Honjozo sake with the elegant woody fragrance of cedar, creating a distinctive harmony.

Enjoy the interplay of cedar and umami
Best appreciated warm, to draw out its full richness
Ideal for New Year’s, celebrations, and spiritual milestones

Cedar’s aroma is a scent long familiar to the Japanese heart—
one that purifies a space and marks the beginning of something special.

The Power of Fragrance in Moments of Celebration

We believe in the power of scent to shift a person’s spirit.
That’s why UZUME Taru Sake has been crafted for “hare-no-hi”—the bright, ceremonial moments in life.

Whether it’s to celebrate others or to honor your own new chapter,
this sake doesn’t just toast the occasion—it transforms the room itself into a place of reverence and joy.
