Step-by-step
As in traditional Japanese cuisine, rice is elevated to an artform whether stirred or shaken into a silky Haku Vodka Martini. The epitome of everyday luxury, Haku’s soft velvety mouthfeel lingers upon the palate with a bold clean finish shining with brightness through each remarkable sip.
Method:
Add Vodka Martini ingredients to a mixing glass.
Add ice, stir for 30 seconds and strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe glass.
Finish with a lemon twist, expressing the oils over the surface before garnishing.
A well-made classic Vodka Martini should feel effortless, but its refinement comes from careful technique. The goal is a Japanese vodka drink that is cold, crystal clear, and silky in texture, with dryness and citrus kept in elegant balance.
Complete your cocktail with
Haku means white; but the kanji also alludes to the purity and brilliance of light itself. The vodka is made from 100% Hakumai Japanese white rice that’s mixed with koji to produce depth and complexity, as it does with sake and shochu. Before bottling, Haku is filtered through bamboo charcoal to yield a soft, subtle spirit that mixes brilliantly in a dry Martini, where its soft, silky finish shines brightest.
