When you think of alcoholic drinks based out of Japan, what do you think of? Sake. Except there are millions of different kinds of alcoholic drinks that are purely Japanese that have yet to be shown to the world. Christopher Pellegrini is looking to help spread these different drinks across the world.

Christopher is the founder and CEO of Honkaku Spirits whose mission is to bring intensely artisanal Japanese spirits to discerning American consumers, especially koji-based spirits including shochu, awamori, and koji whiskey. He's also the writer of the first non-Japanese book about shochu and awamori, "The Shochu Handbook." Fluent in English and Japanese with some conversational Spanish and Korean, Christopher's contribution to increasing global knowledge of Japanese spirits continues to shape opinion on the bourgeoning category.
