Hakushika “Kuromatsu” Sennenju
Hyogo prefecture
Take a load off, sip Sennenju
A work of art by Hakushika. With delicious mix of watermelon, banana, and sweet rice on the nose, this brew is a juicy delight. It’s hard to believe something this tasty could come from just rice and water, but that’s the magic of sake. Ripe strawberry and banana flavors flow into a hushed finish, like the quiet after a long night of celebration. So take a load off when you sip Sennenju.

Tatsuuma Honke Brewing Company
Established in 1662, Tatsuuma Honke Brewing Company has a long history filled with stories. The brewery began with a well they dug that provided them with exceptional quality water. Their brand Hakushika means “white deer”, and is a symbol of good luck and longevity. Their premium sake brand, Kuromatsu, was named in 1920. They’ve progressively sought sake to be enjoyed overseas, and even had a sake brewery in Colorado from 1992-2000. Currently in the 15th generation, they remain a strong leader in the future of sake by keeping the tradition in Nadagogo, a key place in the history of sake.
