WE ARE CRAFT SAKE

Weekly sake rotations, no repeats. Every bottle gets tasted by us, notes are written by us. Yamahai, Kimoto, Muroka Nama Genshu, Bodaimoto, Doburoku and all the elegant, fun, weird and whacky - that’s OMU NOMU.

Our sake bar is run on two driving motivations. First, that there will always be guidance, education and a trusting relationship between sake drinkers and our team. Secondly, that sake drinkers will always have an experience of exploration, where the sake list will be an enjoyable mystery of unknowns.

The era of sake is now.

THE JAPAN CRAFT SAKE BREWERS ASSOCIATION

OMU NOMU is proud to support the Japan Craft Sake Brewers Association, a group of young brewers who aim to modernise sake drinking and widen the scope of possibilities with Japanese fermentation and brewing. Creating a sub-genre of craft sake, the 7 member breweries are Librom, Happytaro, Konohanano, Haccoba, Lagoon, Wakaze and Ine to Agave.

Working on a different type of brewing license, craft sake brewers adopt sake making processes and techniques, but by incorporating auxiliary ingredients into the brew, thus creating a unique form of sake beverage which does not fall under the spectrum of traditional sake.

These include fruited sakes, doburoku, hopped sakes, infused sakes and so much more. Rather than sticking to the norm, craft sake brews are small in volume, extremely seasonal and highly creative.

🍶

WHY DRINK CRAFT SAKE?

Through our trip through Japan we’ve seen how these independent brewers work with bars and concepts to spread awareness about craft sake while pairing them with delicious foods not only to compliment but enhance the foods and drinks.

The craft sake movement is diverse and fun. It has simplicity, and yet a novel complexity unique to the craft genre. With easily identifiable ingredients and concepts, it is easily relatable, and always surprising.

Perhaps, it isn’t traditional sake, but what even is sake anyway?

🍶

THE NEXT GENERATION OF SAKE DRINKERS

Why aren’t Japanese youth drinking sakes? Seen as an old fashioned drink, many young drinkers turn to wine, cocktails and Western spirits as the trendy and fashionable drink.

The craft sake industry, with its advantage in brewing freedom, has created a sub-genre of sake which maintains traditional brewing methods, but is boundless in ingredient choices. This creates apparent flavour concepts which are easily identifiable, cocktail-esque and unique to craft sake

🍶

THE REVIVAL OF DOBUROKU

Doburoku is the genesis of all sake, with roots tracing back to ancient times where rice farmers would make doburoku at home.

Following a long lasting prohibition, it was only recently that the beverage was revitalised for brewing. With these changes, there’s been a resurgence of micro-breweries and ryokans all over Japan brewing the style, aiming to revitalise lost culture and share with the world a new yet old sake style.

What would you expect from doburoku? A completely unpressed , it is a ricey, creamy beverage ranging anywhere between rice pudding and yoghurt. A unique texture is the signature of doburoku too, either with chewable whole rice grains, to a thick rice puree.

🍶

WHAT IS CRAFT SAKE?

Craft sake is a new genre of sake with roots in traditional sake brewing processes, but incorporating modern innovations to create free and diverse styles of sake which goes beyond the traditional.

🍶

Sharing more pictures of our doburoku party, but it's a good time to note that we've got new doburoku coming into OMU NOMU real soon!

From Konohanano Brewery, we've got Kiwi Doburoku, Hojicha Doburoku and the Sakuramochi Doburoku coming in before you know it. Keep up to date with our instastories as we share their launch dates, and in the meantime save yourself seats by making a reservation! DM us or use Chope
