Collection: Yaku Wari

Yaku Wari is internationally regarded as an insider’s tip for authentic Japanese spirits. Sake and shochu in particular have received recognition at competitions in Asia, Europe and the USA for their purity, flavour and craftsmanship.

Minimalist design with a clean aesthetic: Yaku Wari bottles embody Japanese elegance. The labels symbolically reflect culture, nature and craftsmanship – understated, high-quality and harmonious.

Yaku Wari combines time-honoured methods, such as traditional fermentation and maturation, with modern technologies. The spirits are produced in small batches and matured in specially selected casks to develop depth, balance and character.

Yaku Wari is committed to sustainable production, regional ingredients and treating nature and resources with respect. The products are crafted in harmony with the seasons – in the true spirit of Japanese omotenashi hospitality.

Yaku Wari has its roots in rural Japan, where pure spring water, locally grown rice and high-quality fruit form the basis for authentic Japanese drinks. This traditional character continues to shape every recipe to this day.

• Yaku Wari Sake: Delicate, floral and slightly sweet – made from premium rice and soft spring water. Perfect served chilled or slightly warmed.
• Yaku Wari Shochu: Clear and full of character – distilled from rice, barley or sweet potato. Versatile as an aperitif or long drink.
• Yaku Wari Umeshu: A fruity plum liqueur with a balanced sweetness. Ideal on the rocks or as a digestif – a classic of Japanese bar culture.
