Introducing our brand
Vintage gifts that bring back memories of loved ones
Kosoki no Biju is a brand that only carries domestic vintage wines that have been aged for over 10 years, making them extremely rare.
The deep flavor that develops through long-term aging is completely different from that of new sake, and not only will it impress alcohol lovers, but it will also be delicious for those who don't usually drink alcohol.
Vintage sake, which is imbued with the weight of time, is the perfect special gift for a turning point in life. The label will show the year of brewing and production. Why not give the gift of a fun time reminiscing about old memories along with some delicious vintage sake?
Traditional Japanese aged sake used by the Imperial family
From the Kamakura period through to the Edo period, aged sake was a luxury item that was highly valued for imperial wedding ceremonies and as a lucky charm for people of high status.
This is a valuable sake that is perfect as a gift on special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, mid-year and year-end gifts, wedding gifts, and retirement gifts for loved ones.
It is rare, making up only 0.001% of new sake production.
Aged sake is a traditional part of Japanese alcohol culture, but over time the number of sake breweries that produce aged sake has decreased significantly.
In order to revive the culture of aged sake, this brand travels around sake breweries across the country to carefully select only sake with excellent, mellow aromas and flavors that have been aged for at least 10 years.
The aged sake we carefully select is extremely rare and highly valued, accounting for only 0.001% of the total new sake production.
Introduced in Michelin-starred restaurants and hotels
Among the brands handled by Kokoshi no Bishu are some that are served in Michelin-starred restaurants and major foreign-affiliated hotels, and have earned high praise.
Aged sake has a complex flavor not found in new sake, which makes it easy to pair with a wide variety of cuisine, including not only Japanese food, but also French, Chinese, and Italian cuisine, as well as dairy products and chocolate.
Won gold medals in numerous domestic and international competitions
In just three years, it has won 24 awards at six international competitions in five countries, and is highly regarded by alcohol experts for its delicious taste and aroma.

Premium vintage sake Junmai Wakatsuru (2001)
Why not give some delicious vintage liquor along with some chocolate this Valentine's Day?
Each brand has its own brewing year printed on it. Enjoy a fun time sharing memories with your loved ones.
Wakatsuru brewed in 2001
This is a Junmai aged sake made with 67% polished rice. It has the aroma of sweet, ripe yellow peach and honey, and a refreshing, minty fragrance. The sweetness and firm acidity fill the mouth, and the aftertaste is long and refreshing.
Brewery: Wakatsuru Sake Brewery, founded in 1862, Tonami City, Toyama Prefecture
Sake brewing experts are called Toji, and there are various styles suited to the climate and geography of each region. The most well-known are Echigo Toji and Nanbu Toji, and Wakatsuru once employed two Toji from each school at its two breweries, competing with each other. Now, one Toji employee inherits the skills of both schools and brews sake, which gives Wakatsuru its unique character.
