See you at the markets this month.

We’ve nearly sold out of our 750 mL Bridge Street junmai winter edition bottles, but our 200 mL mixed section bundles are a great discovery pack or gift idea.

Umami Pantry and Groovers are all stocked and good to go too!

Come say hi, try Aussie-made premium sake, and taste the difference our Umami Pantry cooking sake makes to your sauces, stir fries and marinades.

We’re excited to be bottling and packing something new: our Bridge Street Junmai sake is soon available in 200 mL bottles.

Also in this format : our Bridge Street Winter Edition 2026 range.

That’s Hearth, Nocturne and the nigori Snow , all now in 200 mL.

Side note: Hearth is becoming an instant classic, so much so, we might be putting it into permanent rotation.

Come have a sip and a chat at the markets.
200 mL bottles available from Sunday 19 July at Eltham Market.
The weekend after, we’ll be at Carlton 25 July and Alphington 26 July.

The air will be crisp but the sake will be warm.

Melbourne winter is made for warm sake.

So we’ve made some limited edition Bridge Street Junmai releases just for you. It’s been a real thrill to share them with our June market customers, and answer all your fermentation questions.

Throughout July, we’ll be pouring tastings of Snow, Hearth and Nocturne, served warm, and all available to take home with you, until sold out.

Of course we still have Bridge Street Classic, Sake Groover and our Umami Pantry cooking range in stock too.

Come and say hello at the markets.

We're proud to release our first seasonal Bridge Street craft sake range.

Three limited releases, each with its own character, crafted in Melbourne for winter.

❄️ Snow — a cloudy nigori with gentle richness and subtle sweetness. Enjoy cool or warm.

🌙 Nocturne — French Earl Grey-infused sake with citrus, floral notes and a soft vanilla finish, designed to be enjoyed warm.

🔥 Hearth — a fuller-bodied sake with layered richness, designed to be enjoyed warm.

One of our favourite discoveries so far? A dusting of cocoa over Snow. Add a drop of vanilla for creamy chocolate heaven.

What would you drink these with?

Available from 6 June, until sold out.

The sound of sake.

We press slowly using the traditional Fune method – gravity, not force.

Next: pasteurisation.

Bridge Street Winter Edition – on its way.

May markets are set.

We’re living meeting you all and hearing how you’re using the Umami Pantry range.

The new dry koji is coming with us this month! It’s used for sake brewing, but it opens up a lot more magical fermentation opportunities beyond that.

We’ll have our full drinking range too: Bridge Street junmai and of course our beloved first-born, Sake Groover Yuzu Splish Splash.

Oh! We’re on some limited winter editions for Bridge Street - more to come!

New dry koji at Alphington Markets today.

We’re excited to introduce a dry koji made with sake brewing spores, crafted here in Melbourne.

This style is widely used in Japan but still rare here. We’re bringing it into the Australian market through our signature small batch production.

If you are already using our original dry Koji, this one is a little different
• cleaner aroma
• more refined sweetness
• suited to drinks, light ferments, and delicate flavour work .

Same craft, with more options to explore the magic of fermentation.

Start simple with rice, fruit or a light marinade and let us know where it goes.

Available at Okkeira’s Umami Pantry and Craft Sake Bar market stall this morning at Alphington.

May 2026 market dates and locations coming soon.
