OKA Bermutto Sake Vermouth is a dry, vermouth-inspired aperitivo from Tsutsumi Distillery in Kumamoto, Kyushu, made from a Junmai sake base fortified with 100% rice-based shochu. It is bottled at 18% ABV (36 proof) in a 720ml bottle.

The Story of OKA Bermutto

Bermutto is the Japanese phonetic spelling of vermouth. This one uses four botanicals: yomogi (Japanese mugwort), yuzu, kabosu (a high-acid citrus) and sansho peppercorn. Use it in place of, or with, dry vermouth or dry sherry, or in a Sonic highball with soda and tonic.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Fruity and yeasty, with grapefruit, peach, guava, lavender and plum
• Palate: Rice, yeast and faint plum, brightened by yuzu and sansho, with earthy grapefruit from yomogi

How to Enjoy

Serve it chilled, in a Martini, or as a highball.
