As we move past Shōsho (Minor Heat) and enter the height of summer,
we are pleased to present the limited-release Atagonomatsu Junmai Daiginjo Hakutsurunishiki, brewed with the rare sake rice Hakutsurunishiki.
Developed by Hakutsuru Sake Brewery, Hakutsurunishiki is a sake rice variety created by crossing Yamada Ho and Wataribune No. 2.
We continue to refine our brewing techniques to bring out the best expression of this exceptional rice.
A highly anticipated release each year, this sake offers a gentle yet refreshing aroma, with hints of juicy pineapple wrapped in elegant depth.
Delicate sweetness and bright acidity layer beautifully across the palate, fading gracefully with a fleeting, elegant finish.
This Junmai Daiginjo unfolds more deeply with time, and pairs exquisitely with seasonal summer delicacies such as rock oysters, hamo (conger pike), and summer vegetables.
Serve well-chilled and savor slowly—this is the ultimate sake to elevate your summer dining experience.
