There are four botanicals used in the production of Oka Kura: Yuzu, Kabosu, Sansho peppercorn, and Yomogi. Yuzu is an acidic aromatic citrus as acidic as a lemon with a flavour that's reminiscent to lemon, grapefruit, and Mandarin orange. Kabosu is a very high-acid citrus profile and flavour similar to yuzu and lime. Sansho peppercorn is a peppery and slightly citrusy peppercorn that's relative Sichuan peppercorn only it produces are milder, numbing sensation on the palate.

It is one of only 28 distilleries certified by the World Trade Organization as a Kuma Shochu producer, a designation similar to the protected designations of origin of Scotch, tequila, and Cognac.

It pours a faint yellow, with some sediment left over from sake filtration, and leans toward the weight and profile of a dry vermouth—albeit with notes of yuzu, grapefruit, green apple, pear and peach. With its heavy citrus backbone, Oka Kura plays well in a White Negroni or a Bronx and complements the flavor profiles of Japanese gins in a 50\/50 Martini. - \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePunch.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Finer Details\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eStyle - Sake\u003cbr\u003eCountry - Japan\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size - 720ml\u003cbr\u003eABV - 18%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oka Kura","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40991239831639,"sku":"OKBSDV","price":59.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/bermutto-bottles-hi-res.jpg?v=1717048221"},{"product_id":"oka-kura-bermutto-sake-sweet-vermouth-720ml","title":"Oka Kura Bermutto Sake Sweet Vermouth 720ml","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Information:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBuilding upon a rebalancing of the four base botanicals of the drier, flagship Bermutto, Oka Kura's taken on dry vermouth. OKA Sweet Bermutto incorporates a powerful fifth ingredient: a bitter Japanese plum called ume. Ume’s tart astringency is right at home in this bitter botanical blend and is perfectly complemented and balanced by raw cane sugar from Okinawa. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine base is Junmai Sake (fermented rice alcohol, not wine). There are five botanicals: Yomogi, yuzu, Kabosu, ume and cane sugar. Yomogi is Japanese wormwood. Yuzu is an acidic aromatic citrus as acidic as a lemon with a flavour that's reminiscent to lemon, grapefruit, and mandarin orange. Kabosu is a very high-acid citrus profile and flavour similar to yuzu and lime. Ume is a tart Japanese green plum. Lastly it's all sweetened with kokuto (Okinawan cane sugar).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOka Kura Bermutto is a uniquely Japanese take on the category of vermouth made from aromatized, shochu-fortified sake. While not technically a vermouth because it is not wine-based, it functions in cocktails as a vermouth should—a botanically-infused, low ABV modifier—and generally bridges a gap between sake, shochu, and vermouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFounded by Yuno Hayashi and named for her grandfather, OKA BRAND offers a growing range of distinctly Japanese spirits and liqueurs made from local rice spirits, Junmai sake, and hyper-regional botanicals.

Tsutsumi has been producing shochu for nearly 150 years in the Hitoyoshi Basin just 5 km from the Kuma River, the longest river in Kyushu. It is one of only 28 distilleries certified by the World Trade Organization as a Kuma Shochu producer, a designation similar to the protected designations of origin of Scotch, tequila, and Cognac. The Kuma River is renowned for its reputation as the clearest stream in Japan, lending itself to crafting fine sake and shochu, all from rice grown within the Kuma River system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInfluenced by the fortified, aromatized wine producers of Europe while drawing on Japanese tradition, OKA BRAND took the cocktail world by storm with the introduction of their flagship expression, Bermutto. A yuzu liqueur and sweet, ume-based formulation of Bermutto followed, and now with the introduction of rice-based vodkas and gin, OKA offers an even wider range of exceptional products for use in cocktails by the world’s most discerning bartenders and mixologists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNose - Yeast, Tropical Fruits, Lavendar\u003cbr\u003eUnmistakably plummy, evocative of of umeshu and sloe gin with sour cherry, orange peel, and brown sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalate - Rice, Faint Plum, Piquant Peppers\u003cbr\u003eOn the palate, oolong tea, tart cherry, grapefruit zest, plum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish - Yuzu, Grapefruit, Pleasant Bitters\u003cbr\u003eCaramel, plum, marzipan, faint sake, lemon, orange\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Finer Details\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eStyle - Sake Vermouth\u003cbr\u003eCountry - Japan\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size - 720ml\u003cbr\u003eABV - 18%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oka Kura","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40991240880215,"sku":"OKBSSV","price":59.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/okabrand-sweet-sake-vermout.jpg?v=1717048235"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/collections\/WR-Cocktail.jpg?v=1787168408","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.co.nz\/collections\/vermouth-fortified-aperitifs.oembed","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
