Futsu Defined

Often times “futsu” is presented as a basic table saké but it can also be crafted into a fine expression despite an inferior milling/polish rate. Futsu is often enjoyed hot and may have alcohol added and is usually not made using a saké grade rice. SakéOne only imports premium futsu.

Hakutsuru Brewery

Hakutsuru is located in the famed Nada district of Kobe, a leading saké production area. The name Hakutsuru means “white crane”. The crane’s reserved character and graceful appearance along with the cultural association of seeing a crane in flight as an auspicious sign, makes the crane an ideal symbol to represent the excellent quality of Hakutsuru’s saké.
