Hakutsuru is located in the famed Nada district of Kobe, a leading sake 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 sake.
TASTING NOTES
Hakutsuru Nishiki is a brother sake rice to Yamada Nishiki. This rice is highly polished and fermented at low temperature, for an extended period of time. After fermentation, the sake is then pressed using hanging bags and gravity, to not add any extra pressure to the sake.
This delicate process creates a sake that delivers wonderful fruity aromas of apple and pear.
