U.S. Sake Brewer Series: SakeOne

Episode 95. Listen at SakeRevolution.com.  Sitting down with another U.S. sake brewer, this week John and Timothy interview Steve Vuylsteke, CEO of SakeOne sake brewery in Oregon.  Steve has an extensive background in Oregon wine, not only having grown up in a winery and but also having lead several wineries as CEO over the years.  Fate brought Steve to SakeOne in 2009 and since then he's guided the company through the rapid growth of the craft sake movement in the U.S.  What's it like to transition from promoting Oregon Pinot Noir to Oregon Junmai Ginjo?  Steve shares with us a bit of his journey from grapes to rice.  To explore one of SakeOne's offerings, the guys taste a special sake together - Naginata Junmai Daiginjo, the Crown Jewel of SakeOne's portfolio. It features American grown Yamadanishiki and a limited production run of only 600 bottles per year.  Listen in and let's learn about one of the original craft sake breweries in the  States - SakeOne. #SakeRevolutionSupport the show
