Horin Junmai Daiginjo is Gekkeikan’s flagship ultra‑premium sake.
A luxurious, meticulously crafted expression made from Yamada Nishiki and Gohyakumangoku rice polished to 50%. Fermented slowly at low temperatures for around 30 days to coax out delicate aromatics, Horin offers a refined bouquet of melon, honeysuckle, green apple, and pear, with a smooth, creamy palate and a long, clean finish. Its elegance reflects the classic Fushimi style, shaped by soft spring water and masterful koji work.

Best enjoyed chilled, ideally in a wine or Daiginjo glass. Horin pairs beautifully with lightly seasoned seafood, salads, lobster, glazed pork, and fresh fruit. A graceful, award‑winning sake that showcases the pinnacle of Gekkeikan’s craft.
