HAIKEN Vodka Delivers Superior Japanese Craftsmanship and Authentic Flavor Profiles for the Modern Spirits Enthusiast



In an artisanal spirits market with an endless array of choices, a recent and highly-anticipated addition, HAIKEN Japanese Handcrafted Vodka, is making its presence known with its harmonious blend of age-old Japanese tradition and modern sophistication.


The latest brand debut from spirits industry innovator Julious Grant, Founder/Chairman of ICONIC Spirits and its parent company, Brand House Group, HAIKEN stands out as a poetic tribute to Japan's enigmatic allure that has captivated the U.S market. The genesis of HAIKEN Original, along with its two fruit-infused siblings, Yuzu and Lychee, can be traced back to the pristine waters of Mt. Katsuragi and the meticulously nurtured rice from Hyogo. These two unyielding constants in HAIKEN’s production process form the cornerstone of its enchanting flavor profiles, which appeal to both traditional and adventurous palates.

With over three decades of top-tier executive experience with behemoths like Beam Suntory, Bacardi, and Moet Hennessy, Grant's latest endeavor dives deep into the heart of Japanese craftsmanship, reflecting a growing American fascination with Japan's rich culinary and beverage culture. "No matter where you look, Japanese influence is everywhere in American culture, from foods to entertainment to spirits,” said Grant. “HAIKEN was conceived to deliver authentic Japanese artistry and flavors to the most consumed spirits sector in the US: vodka.”

HAIKEN Original offers a natural sweetness intertwined with a complex flavor that concludes with a smooth, lingering finish. HAIKEN Yuzu is a spirited homage to Japan’s beloved yuzu fruit, promising to inject a lively zest into classic cocktails. HAIKEN Lychee is a flirtatious dalliance with flavors reminiscent of strawberries and pears, subtly accented with hints of citrus and floral undertones.

The ascent of HAIKEN in the spirits market is a narrative of how well-curated, authentic Japanese spirits are finding a warm embrace far from home. "The meticulous crafting of HAIKEN Original and its fruit-infused expressions present a taste of Japan in the form of a vodka that seamlessly marries modern sophistication with age-old traditions and ingredients,” Grand adds. “The enthusiasm shown by U.S spirits enthusiasts is a promising indicator of HAIKEN's journey ahead.”

The growing portfolio of Brand House Group’s ICONIC Spirits portfolio under Grant’s vision is a testament to the untapped potential of Japanese artisanal spirits. With a lineage boasting premium offerings like TEITESSA, a super-premium Japanese single-grain whisky, and AWAYUKI Japanese Strawberry Gin, made with rare strawberries from Japan’s Nara prefecture, the company is on a mission to bridge the oceans with flavors that resonate with the modern American palate, yet remain true to their Japanese roots.

As American consumers continue to explore and adore the diverse flavors from the Land of the Rising Sun, HAIKEN Japanese Handcrafted Vodka is poised not just to satiate a craving, but to offer a sublime experience that transcends oceans, embodying the profound essence of Japanese artistry in every sip.

Since its launch earlier this year, HAIKEN has witnessed applaudable growth, finding its way to the shelves of Total Wine & More locations in several major markets and a wide selection of independent wine and spirits retailers.
