Hakkaku
Hakkaku is a local sake brewed by the only brewery located in the heart of Hachinohe. Founded in the late Edo period, its name is said to be a combination of the 'Facing Crane' crest of the Nanbu clan, who ruled the Hachinohe domain, and the character 'Hachi' (eight) from Hachinohe. The calligraphy on the label was designed by the great master of Japanese-style painting, Taikan Yokoyama. There is a charming legend that the fee for his brushwork was just a single barrel of sake. Brewed using high-quality rice and pure water from the Tsugaru/Nanbu region, this sake is crafted with the traditional techniques of Nanbu Toji (master brewers). Within its crisp finish, one can sense the unique umami characteristic of this land. Accompanied by the atmosphere of the historic brewery, it is a sake that allows you to slowly savor the history and stories of Hachinohe.
