Gekkeikan Sake 1.5L is a junmai-shu (pure rice) sake bottled at 15.6% ABV in a 1.5-litre format. Gekkeikan traces its origins to 1637 in the Fushimi district of Kyoto, Japan. The U.S. brewing facility in Folsom, California, opened in 1989 and produces this sake using rice, water and koji mold, with no distilled alcohol added. It employs the sokujo method and is aged for six months before release. Serve gently warmed, chilled or at room temperature. It can be used in a sake spritz, a saketini or a sake sangria.
