Fresh enough to become classic

Draft sake provides a refined freshness that is light and smooth. It reaches its cultivated state by being aged after a one month brew process. A sweet rice, almost creamy nose gives way to mixture of melon and coconut. Served chilled for a vibrant drinking sensation.

Hakutsuru Brewing Company

Hakutsuru Brewing Company was founded in 1743 in Nadagogo, an area with a Geographical Indication today. Using the blessings of the land and their exemplary pursuit of innovation, Hakutsuru has become one of the top-selling sake breweries in Japan. Whether it's doing deep research into water sources, building research facilities for proprietary yeast, or developing their own unique sake rice, this company goes above and beyond to be at the forefront of sake brewing. They’ve even expanded by becoming a major shareholder in Oregon’s craft sake brewery, SakeOne! All this makes Hakutsuru a brewery well worth checking out.
