Built from 100% rice and pure Kuma River water, then aromatized with botanicals in the vermouth tradition, producing a distinctly Japanese take on the classic European fortified wine apéritif.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe “Bermutto” name reflects the Japanese pronunciation of “vermouth.” Tsutsumi Shuzo has 141 years of distilling history with deep roots in the Kuma River region. Using sake (rather than European wine) as the base produces a category-redefining product — the underlying alcohol carries the rice and umami depth of sake rather than the grape character of a Mediterranean wine. The botanicals layered on top complete the vermouth profile while preserving the distinctly Japanese identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tsutsumi Distillery, Kumamoto, Japan (141 years)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese Sake-Based Vermouth (Bermutto)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBase:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% rice + Kuma River water (Kuma Shochu region)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vermouth\"\u003evermouth at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oka Kura","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42904201560135,"sku":"SK 70355880067","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0640\/2375\/files\/JapaneseBermutto.jpg?v=1782422935","url":"https:\/\/bourbonnest.com\/products\/oka-kura-japanese-bermutto-sake-vermouth","provider":"Bourbon Nest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
