Crafted from Blue Ridge Mountain Water, American-made and Exclusively Distributed by Breakthru Beverage


 Kintsugi Sake LLC, proudly announces the official release of its first product, Oishii Sake, marking a significant milestone in the world of American-made sake. Crafted from the pristine waters of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Titan Rice grown in the heartland of Arkansas, Oishii Sake embodies the perfect harmony of tradition and innovation, offering a unique drinking experience for enthusiasts and novices alike. Sake, it’s not just for sushi anymore™.

Oishii Sake, which directly translates to “delicious” sake, will have two iterations - Cloudy Junmai Sake and Clear Junmai Sake. The Cloudy Oishii Nigori flavor profile is light and sweet with notes of banana and melon. Oishii’s Clear Sake’s flavor profile is light and sweet with notes of pear and melon. Each product will be cost-conscious and priced at $29.99 suggested retail.

“We are thrilled to introduce Oishii Sake to the world. We are confident that with the first sip, our sake will leave a lasting impression and have consumers asking for it by name," said Buzzy Sklar, CEO of Kintsugi Sake LLC. "Our passion for craftsmanship and dedication to quality is evident in every aspect of our product. From the selection of premium ingredients to the meticulous brewing process, Oishii Sake represents the pinnacle of Japanese tradition infused with a touch of American ingenuity. We believe great rice + great water = great sake™."

Oishii Sake's journey begins with a commitment to quality and authenticity. Sourced from the renowned Blue Ridge Mountain region, known for its exceptional water purity, every drop of Oishii Sake is infused with the essence of nature's finest. This commitment to excellence extends throughout the entire brewing process, with only 4 ingredients, no sulfates and a low ABV it’s the better-for-you booze™. 

Launching first with Breakthru Florida, Breakthru Beverage Group’s extensive distribution network and unparalleled expertise, Oishii Sake is poised to become the new standard for premium sake in the United States. Breakthru Beverage is a leading distributor renowned for its commitment to excellence, ensuring this exceptional beverage reaches discerning consumers nationwide. 

Oishii Sake is available in select retailers and fine establishments such as Miami’s premier discount wine and liquor store, Jensen’s Liquors, and Bal Harbor Shops’ famed Makoto restaurant, inviting consumers to discover this remarkable beverage's unparalleled taste and craftsmanship. Whether enjoyed independently or paired with anything from a burger, or tacos to omakase, Oishii Sake promises to elevate every drinking experience to new heights.
