Sake you can count on

An excellent junmai from Hakutsuru Brewing Company. Don’t expect anything overly snazzy, but we think that’s the point of this brew. It boasts robust, toasty flavors matched with an easy dryness that make it such a solid stand by. And if you find yourself craving sake on a cold winter day, don’t worry, Hakutsuru Junmai is just as delicious warm as it is cold. Pair with grilled meats or creamy pastas.

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.
