Description

Gekkeikan Black & Gold Tokubetsu Junmai Sake

Gekkeikan established its Folsom sake brewery as part of its strategy to reach new markets. It is the company’s first brewing facility outside of  Japan.

Why was Folsom selected? Just as Fushimi was “discovered” centuries ago, Folsom was found to offer just the right conditions: high quality water and an abundance of rice- the perfect setting for a skilled brewmaster backed by over three and a half centuries of experience.

Black & Gold is a unique product, as it blends our Traditional and Haiku sake. Like blended whiskey, our brewmaster selects the best of each fermentation to bring out the finest from both sake types. The result is a beautifully balanced tipple that is suitable for a variety of occasions and dishes. Full-bodied with hints of honeydew, papaya, anise and roasted nuts. Well balanced, finishes long and smooth. A great sipping sake.
