Bottled 2023, Australian Release December 2024
The interplay of warmth, gravitas and tonicity expressed in Assemblage 5 is IWA’s unprecedented – somewhat avant-garde – proposition.
THE NOSE
The aromas of pear, raspberry and plum blend with notes of rose and jasmine. Such a complexity is heightened by the spicy freshness of pine and geranium.
THE PALATE
The contrast between the palate and nose is engaging. There is a palpable duality of the pure well rounded fruity / floral aromatics and the archaic tactile presence of gentle astringency. The silky and warm opening dissolves into a dry minerality and lingers with a vibrant touch of citrus, white pepper and hint of liquorice.

Serve
Lower temperatures. Reishu. 冷酒
From 1-2°C and above
A palpable duality of pure, well-rounded floral/fruity aromatics and the archaic tactile presence of gentle astringency. Remains remarkably stable as it warms gradually in the glass (12°C to 18°C).
20° Jo-on 常温
Evoking the serenity of a sunset. Aromas of pine essential oil and cypress unfold, bringing a sense of fullness. The finish reveals a refined bitterness reminiscent of vermouth, with a tonic warmth and subtle citrus notes.
Higher temperatures. Kanzake. 燗酒
35-37°C Hitohadakan 人肌燗
A vibrant interplay of ripe fruits —plum, peach, mango in syrup— evolves into delicate cereal notes reminiscent of oatmeal porridge. As the viscosity increases, the finish becomes more concise, yet Assemblage 5 at 37°C reveals a pleasingly rich character.
