Sweet, tangy and refreshing

By only milling away 30% of the grain, the brewery maintains a good deal of the original flavor of the rice. “Haiku” is also only pasteurized once, allowing for a refreshing taste that is big on flavor. A wave of pineapple rushes forth, giving way to apple, pear and mango. Try pairing this gold medal-winner with sweet and sour pork or spicy Szechuan hot pot.

Gekkeikan Sake (USA), Inc.

Gekkeikan’s state-of-the-art sake brewery in Folsom, California, marks the latest chapter in a nearly 400-year success story that began in Fushimi, Kyoto, Japan. Despite sake being a 2,000-year-old brewing tradition, Gekkeikan embraces cutting-edge technologies, meeting the rising global demand for sake. Gekkeikan Sake (USA), Inc. signifies their first venture outside Japan. Much like Fushimi, Folsom was chosen for its ideal conditions. The area boasts high-quality water and abundant rice — a perfect canvas for skilled brewmasters with over three and a half centuries of expertise, further solidifying Gekkeikan’s global market presence.
