泡波 (Hawao) - Hateruma Shuzojo

When poured into a glass, a mild aroma with little pungency gently spreads. One sip reveals a crisp, mellow, and light taste that goes smoothly down the throat. Hawao is an awamori produced by Hateruma Shuzojo, the only brewery on Hateruma Island, Japan's southernmost inhabited island. Since its founding in 1950, it has been a family-run business for three generations, producing only one brand: Hawao at 30% alcohol. Because production is extremely low and most of it is consumed on an island that has no direct flights to the main island, it is called 'phantom awamori.' If you encounter it, first try it straight or on the rocks to appreciate its mellowness. You will want to savor every drop of this rare bottle.
