Karakami HOTELS & RESORTS will start selling the premium line “Junmai Daiginjyo Leikou -Kyoku-“, the highest peak of “Leikou”, the first private brand of Japanese sake.

Many people smile and enjoy each other's company. Aiming to be the sake of choice for our customers, "Leimitsu" is taking the sake to a higher level.

In an effort to create a proud sake that reflects the wishes of many people, we held a public name contest and after rigorous screening of approximately 500 applications, we named the brand “Raikou” (meaning “light” in Japanese).
In order to make the brand known and available to more people, we conducted an advance purchase crowdfunding campaign, and despite the short three-week time frame, we received support from several hundred people, far exceeding our expectations. The product is now on sale.
