How to Buy

Our twenty-fifth batch of NamiHana is a blend of sweet potatoes carefully cultivated on the Big Iskand. NamiHana, our flagship authentic shochu, is meticulously handcrafted and bottled in the historic surf town of Haleiwa, Oahu. We adhere to time-honored techniques passed down through generations, which I (Ken) was privileged to learn from my esteemed master, Manzen, in Kagoshima, Japan.

Our brand, NamiHana, translates to "waves and flowers" in Japanese, a concept beautifully captured by our Hawaiian Lei Label. The label's background features a historic Japanese wave pattern, symbolizing "waves," while the plumeria and ti leaf lei represent "flowers." Additionally, a back label provides insights into the unique characteristics of our hand-craft shochu-making process. 

This special, almost completely undiluted Genshu is a first-time release. Its alcohol content has been adjusted to 38.1% from NamiHana's Genshu. Similar to our Banzai Strength Black and White, it is best enjoyed straight at room temperature after a meal, offering a powerful flavor followed by a discernible sweetness. It is a blend of black Koji and white Koji. The reason for the name "Diamond Head Proof" will become clear once you have the bottle in hand.

Haleiwa Rainbow is also our limited release gin made from our NamiHana shochu with Hawaii-grown botanicals. We use several different colors of botanicals from Hawaii to create Haleiwa Rainbow's exceptional flavor. 

I apologize for the premium price of Haleiwa Rainbow. To make one bottle, we need approximately 1.7 bottles of NamiHana shochu. In addition to juniper berries imported from Europe, I added botanicals from Hawaii such as jabong (pomelo), dried hibiscus flower, ogo limu (seaweed), three varieties of ti leaf, calamansi, and more. Haleiwa Rainbow has a distinctive aroma and smoothness. Enjoy it on the rocks or in cocktails
