Hakutsuru-Nishiki is a sake brewing rice produced by the Hakutsuru Sake Brewery in Hyogo, Japan, and is a brother to Yamadanishiki, whose mother is Yamadaho and whose father is Watabune 2.
Kamenoi Shuzo, which brews Kudokibe and Bakuren, is impressive for its super-cosmetics.
This sake, too, is brewed with Hakutsuru-Nishiki polished to a luxurious 30% polishing ratio, yet it costs a little over 2,000 yen for a four-pack.
This is a threat to other breweries.
Now, let's take a look at this sake.
The exterior is silver crystal.
There are very faint gas bubbles on the surface.
The aroma is fresh and mild.
Freshly cut pears, yellow apples, and melon are fresh and sweet, with grapefruit and pineapple sensations in the acidity.
The rice flavor is powdery and fresh.
Texture is smooth and silky, with a scattering of tingling gas pungency.
The entry is fresh and strongly sweet.
Like pear or apple juice.
The balance with the acidity is also refreshing.
The refreshing sweetness spreads and flows with the clear umami of the rice.
The overt aroma is also sweet, refreshing, and pleasant.
The sharpness is good and there is no stickiness at all.
The lingering finish is quite long. A very slight bitterness creates a tightness.
Well, this is delicious. ☺️
The label says "too sweet is a charm", but combined with the freshness and the beautiful umami from the latter half, it is sweet but not at all too sweet.
Good evening, Mr. Aladdin.
I couldn't buy it near me so I got it when I went to Mr. Sukumasa 😊.
I was a little concerned about the phrase "not too sweet is the charm. I was a little concerned about the phrase "too sweet is a charm", but if it's not too sweet, I guess I don't have to worry about it 😅.
Good morning, bouken 😃.
As for the sweetness, please be aware that my standards may be a bit lax as a lover of sweetness 😁.
I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the storm 🌀you made the long trip to Sukhung and got it 😄.
Hi Aladdin 🐦.
I went to buy this and they only had one bottle left 😢 so I guess I bought Yamadaho 🤔I like sweet so it's right in the middle of my taste 😻
Good evening, Pon 😃.
Too bad, I wanted you to try it 😌I imagine it's like a refreshing noble sake, the type you would definitely like if you like sweet and tasty 🍶.
But the Kudokidote and pork cutlet brewed with Yamadanishiki's mother also looked amazing 🤤.
Continuing from yesterday, here is a series of kudo.
This is Hakutsuru Nishiki by Kudo Jr.
This is also a first for me.
There are still some I haven't had yet.
I have never had it before.
Now it's time to open the bottle.
The ginjo aroma is modest.
The label says, "Too much sweetness is a charm.
but I don't think it's too sweet for me.
but I don't feel it's too sweet.
It tastes like juicy white peaches.
It tastes fresh.
It is very easy to drink.
I enjoyed it again 🙏.
Purchase price ¥2420（720ml)
Found at a liquor store in my hometown.
The owner of the liquor store explained to me that only 300ml of the sake was raw, so I bought 300ml.
The sweetness, fruitiness, and aromatic richness spread in the mouth.
The taste is refreshing and refreshing.
This is a delicious sake that makes you want to drink more and more of it.
Yamadaho of Kudokibe Jr.
Such a red 🟥 label,
I saw it for the first time. 😳
I had never had it in the past,
I immediately picked it up and went to the cashier 🤭.
Now it's time to open the bottle!
The aroma is at the usual Kudo level,

I am happy and satisfied to have found a sake

I can't stop being excited.

Yesterday was a hurried hyenas meeting😅.
We drank beer, so there were about 2 bottles of this left at the end!
It's a pity that Black hasn't been served in the last 2 years, but White is tasty too 😋.
The aroma is too gorgeous 👍.
It's much sweeter when it's a little warmer.
I'm glad I haven't had any Kudo lately 👍I remember the Ogawa yeast one being good, so I'm tempted to try it.
Lately, compared to before
I think I see Hakutsuru Nishiki sake more often.
I've always wondered what it was like🤔
I was curious about it, so I bought some.
30% polished Hakutsuru-Nishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, 13% alcohol by volume
Oh, it's been a while since I've had a low alcohol 😲.
I'm not sure if the low alcohol content is affecting the sweetness of the sake.
I wonder if the low alcohol is affecting it?
When the aluminum cap is opened neatly
The opening sound is bouju ♫ in mp.
The aroma is... surprisingly modest.
When you drink it, the aroma is slightly apricot.
The taste is... oh, it is indeed sweet ✨.
Next to the clear sweetness like cotton candy
Next to the distinct sweetness like cotton candy, the acidity is modestly close to it.
There is no bitterness.
I have the impression that many other breweries' Hakutsuru-nishiki sake
I have the impression that many other breweries' sake made with Hakutsuru-nishiki also have a reputation for being sweet.
Maybe it is that kind of sake rice.
I like sweet sake, so I'm totally fine with it.
but for those who like dry sake, it might be a little too sweet 😅.
