HAKKAISAN BREWERY
A distinguished sake from Niigata Prefecture, celebrated for its light, clean and crisp tanrei karakuchi style. Brewed with Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 45% and pure snowmelt spring water from Mount Hakkai, it reflects the clarity of the region’s natural environment. Meticulous hand-crafted koji and slow, cool fermentation create remarkable delicacy and balance. Subtle aromas of flowers and gentle fruit lead into a silky palate, where refined rice notes and a refreshing dryness linger. Elegant and versatile, it pairs beautifully with sashimi, white fish, delicate vegetables and even refined Western cuisine.
