Hakutsuru Nishiki Junmai Daiginjo in Ceramic Bottle 720ml
Size: 720ml | ABV: 15%
In 3 words: Smooth, velvety & juicy
Hakutsuru Nishiki is Hakutsuru's expression of sake perfection. A luxurious sake, mouth-filling and full of flavour, yet delicately refined. Hakutsuru's finest sake made by creating a new strain of rice that would surpass the traditional rice used in sake and excel after substantial polishing. This took eight years of development and is the first successful cross-breed of Yamadaho and Tankan-Wataribune rice in 70 years. Enjoy the elegance of floral notes of jasmine and orange blossom and savour a hint of vanilla in the extra-long finish.
The ceramic bottle provides both aesthetic appeal and functionality. The ceramic material helps to protect the sake from light and temperature fluctuations, preserving its quality over time.

The Brewery
Hakutsuru
Hakutsuru have been creating fine sakes in Nada Japan since 1743, when a timber merchant named Mr. Jihei Kano began producing sake .The location is exceptionally well suited for making Japan’s finest sake because of the confluence of four geographic elements: locally grown sake rice, first-rate natural spring water, cold winds from the Rokkō mountains and a regional Toji brewing culture more than a thousand years strong known as NADAGOGO - a recognised geographical indication of quality.
