I bought this sake at Niigata Airport on my first business trip to Niigata.
I had heard of Hakkaisan, but had avoided it because I thought it would be dry, but since it was a draft sake, I drank it for the first time.
It was indeed dry, but it was a very thick sake. Of course, it was delicious, but it still had a punch because of its sake-like flavor. It was just as I had imagined.
MLB Opening Day! Cubs x Dodgers
I wish I could have been there to see the Japanese presence!
The day will come when baseball kids who saw this game will be active in the future.
On such a day, I had a bottle of Hakkaisan, which became the official sake of the Dodgers. What is it? Official sake? It's the only sake served at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, and with the original design of the cups and events, I'm curious about the sake! What an honor, indeed, the Hakkaisan of the world. This is definitely an opportunity to sell sake in the U.S. I hope the whole industry rides the wave!
To realize the dream of Jiro Nagumo, President of Hakkai Brewery, "Making SAKE the world's beverage of choice".
Slightly lilting banana,
Slightly mild banana, clear as water,
A subtle, elegant sweetness.
Refreshing bitterness like soda water,
It is dry and crisp,
It's a fine food sake, beautiful, and delicious.

Good morning, Golden Cat Demon 😃!
Really! I wish I could have seen MLB⚾️'s Japanese success last week‼️ ballpark 🥹.
One item was on the VIP seating menu, but Hakkaiyama is now the official sake of the Dodgers 🤗It's going to be a lot of fun 🤗.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! I'm not sure about the existence of "official sake" 😅, but I heard that Hakkaisan will be served at the stadium as an official sponsor, so I hope it will be a lot of fun! I hope it will be a great success!
Everyone is familiar with Hakkaisan. You can find Hakkaisan almost everywhere you go.
It has the rich sweetness and aroma of rice that is typical of Niigata.
What is typical of Hakkaisan is the subtle aftertaste of sweet sake after swallowing.
This is worth mentioning and is the reason why people say they like it.
The taste design symbolizes a sake that is typical of a rice-producing region and a sweet sake.
I wonder if it is my imagination that the mouthfeel changes every time depending on the condition of the drinker.
