【Features】
The usual liquor to drink at home. I want to make it tastier and more special.
We have created an aging kit that will make the dream of such a sake lover come true. Its name is "#酒ハック".
If you pour sake into a special glass bottle set with precious wood, you can wait for half a day and it will have a mellow and rich aroma as if your usual sake has been aged in a barrel!
Developed by alcohol lovers, this kit is for you who like to drink.
When sake is aged in barrels, the tannins and other components contained in the barrel dissolve and dye it a beautiful amber color, creating a "delicious sake" with a mellow and mellow taste.
However, due to the fact that high-quality domestic wood that can be made into barrels is running out, and because of the cost of barrel making and the limited amount that can be put in, long-term barrel-aged sake is inevitably expensive.
Furthermore, in recent years, it has attracted the attention of alcohol fans around the world, and the price of not only Japan whiskey, which is aged for a long time in barrels, but also shochu and Japan sake that is aged for a long time has increased.
"I still want to drink long-term aged sake, and I want to drink it today!"
In order to fulfill such a wish, we were able to create the sake aging kit "#酒ハック", which changes the taste of ordinary sake to barrel-aged sake in just half a day.
Select 7 baked (char) domestic precious woods, set them in a bottle, pour your usual sake, and you're ready to go. In just half a day, you can enjoy the barrel-aged sake you've been longing for!
It will be delivered in a special wood grain box. It can also be a gift for a loved one who loves alcohol.

[Frequently Asked Questions]
Q: How long should I ripen?
A: At the beginning of use, it will bring a change in taste and aroma to the sake like a new barrel, so try adjusting the aging period while tasting it for about half a day. If you feel that it has become too thick, please enjoy it with a highball.
Q: Can precious wood be used repeatedly?
A: It depends on the species of the precious tree and the sake, but you will be able to feel the change in taste and aroma about 3 to 4 times in about half a day of pickling. The change becomes milder with each use, so it is one of the pleasures to try long-term aging.
Q: How to store precious wood?
A: Since there is scorching and wood chips associated with manufacturing, please wash it lightly with water before using it without using detergent. Please store precious wood in a clean environment and avoid high temperatures and humidity after use.
Q: Do you have any recommended alcoholic beverages?
A: Whether it's whiskey, shochu, or awamori, it's easier to feel the change in relatively low-priced liquor. First of all, try to get a sense of the change in aging. It is not recommended to combine it with alcoholic beverages that are suddenly expensive and have a balanced taste. Once you get used to the taste, like the second and third fills of whiskey barrels, please try aging with your favorite liquor. Hinoki cypress has a strong aroma, so it is recommended to have a ripening period of about half a day at first.
