4. 04 Assemblage Club Sake Worldʼs original sake brand. Assemblage Club is created by blending carefully selected premium sake from multiple breweries, producing an original style of sake that cannot be achieved by a single brewery alone. Taro´［太郎］ 720ml、180ml 720ml 500ml Kasumi［柑澄］ Koka［古花］ A bold umami-forward sake with a touch of aged sake that delivers a clean, refined finish. A refreshing sake with gentle sweetness and acidity that complements food without overpowering it. A sophisticated blend of multiple aged sake with layered complexity and subtle bitterness. Assemblage is a French term meaning “blending,” traditionally used in wine and Champagne production. Assemblage Club applies this philosophy to Japanese sake, combining the unique characteristics of different sake to create entirely new value. Rather than simple mixing, it represents creativity through blending and transcends the boundaries of individual breweries to shape a new culture of Japanese sake.
