Gekkeikan

Gekkeikan is the quintessential sake of Kyoto's Fushimi district. Founded in Kan'ei 14 (1637), the first generation, Okura Jiueemon, began brewing sake in Fushimi, originally under the brand name 'Tama no Izumi.' In 1905 (Meiji 38), the name 'Gekkeikan' was adopted, and since then, it has become a famous brand known nationwide. Using high-quality underground water from Fushimi for brewing, its mellow and gentle flavor is loved by many. At the Gekkeikan Okura Sake Museum, visitors can closely observe the history and traditional tools of sake brewing. As a leading figure of Fushimi that has long been a staple of Kyoto's dining tables, every glass offers a sense of the weight of nearly four hundred years of history.
