Go-Sake wins double silver at the Craft Spirits Berlin Awards

Berlin sake startup awarded twice.

At this year's Craft Spirits Awards in Berlin, the Berlin sake startup Go-Sake scored twice and convinced the jury. With a high score of 86.25 points for the Go-Sake (Junmai/Arimitsu Brewery) and 88.25 points for the Sake and Tonic.

The Craft Spirits Berlin Awards competition is dedicated to handcrafted spirits and is Europe's largest competition in this area. The submitted products will be judged by a jury of experts in a blind tasting. The jury includes proven experts and sensory experts. Each product is judged individually and by five judges. The criteria tested include: Smell, taste, balance and typicality. The evaluation is based on a 100-point scheme.

"We are delighted that our submissions have been so successful within this competition. These awards are a great appreciation of the outstanding sake brewing tradition in Japan", says Dr. Bastian Schwithal, CEO and Co-Founder of Go-Sake.

Junmai sake with its 15% alcohol content is made exclusively from water, rice and koji. In no other type of sake does rice play such an important role as in Junmai.

"The translation of Junmai means "pure rice" and with its mild and gentle rice taste, with a fine sweetness and little acidity, it is a fantastic drink that offers a great taste result either chilled or slightly warmed," explains Dr. Bastian Schwithal.

With the vegan sake and tonic as a ready-to-drink beverage, Go-Sake expanded its range last year and is bringing the trend drink of the summer into the bottle and to Europe.
