F.	SakeOne 820 Elm St Forest Grove, Oregon	SakéOne was founded by a group of folks who simply loved saké and had a vision - to produce world-class saké in the United States. Although saké was traditionally made in Japan, they believed that premium ginjo saké could be produced in the United States. With water as one of saké's most critical ingredients, the east slope of Oregon's Coastal Mountains was identified as an ideal water source for its purity. And so Forest Grove, Oregon, became the home of SakéOne, producer of Momokawa and Moonstone, America's most honored sakés! SakéOne makes an organic saké available on site in their tasting room. The friendly and informative staff at our Tasting Room in Forest Gove, Oregon, will guide you through a flight of premium sakés. We’re just a short drive from Portland, Oregon, and near a wonderful selection of other Oregon wineries. Please contact us if you would like suggestions on accommodations and other wineries to visit.
