Hakutsuru Blanc  Flavors of both wine and sake. Hakutsuru has a strong acidity and sweetness, but has a strong sake flavor. At 8% alcohol, it is easy to drink.  Finished in 2 days, the 8% sweet and sour taste makes it great on its own or with cheese or other snacks.

I saw a half-price sticker on it at the supermarket where I was traveling, so I bought it immediately. Tax included 704
