Brewed by Konishi Shuzo (株式会社 小西酒造) in Hyogo Prefecture, Hakushika Chokara Junmai (黒松白鹿 純米 辛口) embodies the traditional karakuchi (dry) style for which Hyogo is famous.

Made with premium local rice and the region’s soft Nishinomiya spring water, it delivers a smooth, straightforward expression of pure rice flavour. Expect gentle aromas of steamed rice and toasted grain, followed by a crisp, dry palate and a refreshing finish that pairs effortlessly with Japanese cuisine.
