ADIATE Co., Ltd. is a Tokyo-based luxury spirits company. Our mission is to translate Japanese cultural assets – sake brewing, water, craftsmanship – into spirits that compete in the global luxury market. We created SAKE VODKA, a new category of Japanese vodka made from sake or from sake rice (rice grown specifically for sake brewing, not table rice). Our products are distilled in Toyama Prefecture, a region known for its ultra-soft water and long sake-brewing tradition. Our brands: TOMIKI Vodka – a luxury vodka distilled from junmai daiginjo sake brewed in Toyama. Remarkably round on the palate with a rich, fragrant nose. Gold medal, IWSC 2026. HASHIRA Vodka – an ultra-premium vodka made from 100% Yamada Nishiki, the most prized sake rice in Japan, and finished with Toyama’s ultra-soft water. In Japan, our vodkas are served at luxury hotel bars and sold in airport duty-free. We have been operating for over ten years and handle planning, wholesale, import and export of spirits. We are now expanding internationally and looking for importers and distributors who work with luxury hotels, high-end bars and premium retail. Samples available on request – please get in touch.
