LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

“

The ultimate dining sake. It never gets in the way. It is like drinking fresh mountain spring water that happens to get you drunk.

The Library Note

Named after Mt. Hakkai, this brewery represents the Niigata style: clean, dry, and cold. The snow is used to naturally refrigerate the fermentation tanks. It is often described as 'Tanrei Karakuchi' (crisp and dry), designed not to overpower food but to cleanse the palate.

Sommelier's Perspective

THE NOSE

Subtle and clean. Hints of rice, apple, and fresh water.

THE PALATE

Dry and crisp. Light savory notes with a vanishing finish.

THE FINISH

Short and refreshing.
