Hakutsuru Nishiki by Hakutsuru Shuzo I have had several Hakutsuru Nishiki, including Jyushiyo and Jikin, but this is the first time I have had the Honke's. The aroma is rather gorgeous, but milder than the previous one. It has the same green apple aroma with a relatively moderate sweetness. It might be good for those who don't like too gorgeous aroma. The taste is mainly elegant and mildly sweet and delicious. It has a more subdued atmosphere than "Saku", but the smooth mouthfeel and rich umami give it a more mellow taste. It finishes with a slightly strong acidity. Easy to drink and delicious! I imagined it would taste a bit more classic, but it is a delicious modern sake.
