Hakutsuru Nigori Umeshu 720ML + Hakutsuru Marugoto Shibori Nigori Yuzu Shu 720ML

Nigori Umeshu
720mL

Hakutsuru Nigori Umeshu is made with Daiginjo grade sake. It contains a generous amount of Ume fruit - not only the juice, but also the fruit. The unfiltered aspect is from that plummy pulp, which results in a higher viscosity and depth than would be possible in most other umeshu.

The Hakutsuru Sake Brewing Company was founded in 1743, in the middle of Japan's Edo period. Records show that the company started with a single brewhouse and had a total production volume of 32 kiloliters. The name "Hakutsuru" has a long tradition, first coming into use in 1747, four years after the company's founding.

In those days, many sake brand names were used in common, such as Masamune or Tsuru, and it was difficult to tell which brewery a sake came from by its name. To make the distinction clear, we originally named our high-grade sake "Hakutsuru" (meaning "white crane") to set it apart. The Japanese crane's reserved character and graceful appearance, and the cultural association of seeing the crane in flight as an auspicious sign, make the crane an ideal symbol to represent the excellent quality of our sake.
