Join us on Sunday, December 14th from 6–8 PM for an exclusive tasting experience featuring four distinguished distilleries and sake breweries- Haccoba, Pukupuku Brewing, Naturadistill, and Ichido. Explore a curated selection of 10 unique spirits and sakes, guided by the experts behind the craft.

Featured Producers

This tasting highlights four innovative makers from Fukushima, each redefining Japanese sake and spirits through creativity, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for local heritage.

Haccoba

A boundary-pushing brewery from Odaka, Haccoba blends the traditions of doburoku with modern craft-beer techniques—most notably adding hops during fermentation—to create vibrant, layered brews that blur the line between sake and beer.

Pukupuku Brewing

Founded in 2024, Pukupuku crafts expressive, naturally fermented sake that reimagines regional folklore and brewing traditions. Their playful, hop-infused and doburoku-inspired creations celebrate the agricultural landscape of Fukushima Hamadoori.

Naturadistill

From a renovated village pharmacy in Kawauchi, Naturadistill distills spirits rooted in Japan’s native botanicals. Their small-batch approach captures the quiet beauty of the surrounding mountains, merging traditional techniques with modern experimentation.

Ichido

Based in Tomioka, Ichido produces elegant rice shochu using wild “flower yeast” and gentle vacuum distillation to preserve its delicate aromatics. Their fragrant, herb- and fruit-infused blends become naturally crafted cocktails inspired by the subtle flavors of blossoms.
