American sake staple from Brooklyn

Not to be confused with Association No. 14 yeast, Brooklyn Kura “Number Fourteen” was born from their fourteenth batch of R&D — the perfect recipe for their staple “nama” (unpasteurized sake). You can enjoy this sake fresh from the tap if you’re lucky enough to visit their taproom. And for all of us in other states and afar, thank goodness for our distributor for making it available to us.

Brooklyn Kura

Brooklyn Kura is committed to creating a new tradition of American craft sake. Owner Brian Polen and “toji” (brewmaster) Brandon Doughan met in Japan and found they both shared the goal of making a true craft American sake. After experimenting for a few years, they officially opened their taproom in Brooklyn, New York, in 2018. Since its opening, Brooklyn Kura has been very fortunate to get advice from some of Japan’s top breweries, such as Hakkaisan, Nanbu Bijin, Rihaku, and many others. It is with great honor and dedication that the folks at Brooklyn Kura bring their special brand of sake to the world.
