Eight years worth of happiness

The kanji character eight (八) has many auspicious meanings, and is the first character for Hakkaisan (八海山). It’s also the katakana “ha,” so putting it on the label eight times is like laughing “ha ha ha…” for happiness. All intended puns aside, this is an incredibly supple treat with a rich mellowness and a hint of cantaloupe on the nose. Enjoy this 8-year-old sake for a special occasion.
