The House of Suntory

Curated by master distiller Kazuyuki Torii, Haku Vodka epitomises Japanese craftsmanship and nature’s riches. It embodies the vision of its Founder Shinjiro Torii; combining the riches of Japanese nature with exquisite craftsmanship. As a remarkable addition to Suntory’s esteemed portfolio, Haku pays tribute to the devotion and ingenuity of Japanese craftsmanship.

The name itself holds significance as the kanji (Japanese character) for Haku means ‘white.’ However, the beauty of the Japanese language lies in its subtlety, allowing kanji to have multiple readings. When read as ‘shiro,’ it simply means white but when read as ‘haku,’ it is intentionally rooted and elevated. Haku vodka finds its roots in ‘Hakumai,’ the renowned Japanese white rice, capturing its essence flawlessly.
