This year, The Hachi Shochu Competition moves to the digital stage — and takes a different approach. Open to creators around the world, we invite you to join us and showcase your creativity your way, on your occasion.
Create your moment enjoying Hachi Shochu at your own occasion. Whether it's a cocktail, highball, low-ABV creation, or any style of serve — make it yours. Share your creation through an Instagram Reel, tell us the story behind your drink, and you could win HKD 8,000 in cash (or equivalent).
Your drinks. Your story. Your moment with Hachi.
