Review: Haku Vodka

by Jeff Ellingson

Haku Vodka was just launched in the US by Beam Suntory.  They also released Roku Gin, a gin made with 6 Japanese botanicals.  Haku translates to white in English, to represent white rice.  It is made from 100% Japanese white rice in Kagoshima Kyushu, a region historically famous for its rice spirit making.  The process begins with white rice fermented with Koji mold to create a mash.  Koji mold is also used to make sake.  The mash is distilled through pot stills.  The rice spirit is then distilled through two different processes in a pot still and column still.  The spirit is then blended and filtered through bamboo charcoal in Osaka Japan.  Bamboo charcoal has three times more porous cavities per gram than other wood charcoal.  The curved lines on the Haku bottle represent the streams glistening through Japanese nature, and represent Japan’s four seasons.     The aroma of Haku leads with floral notes followed by vanilla, banana, and fresh steamed rice with charcoal and caramel on the backend.  The sweet vanilla entry is joined by fresh rice.  Smashed banana arrives at the midpoint.  The fade is silky smooth balancing rice, banana, and creamy vanilla flavor.  The finish is warm, dry, and mineral.  Vanilla, steamed rice, and charcoal taste with a long peppery sting complete the journey.  Priced under $30 a bottle, Haku Vodka is a spirit you will want to share with your vodka loving friends.
