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 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 🤤.
