Profile
Sweet and pure, gently sparkling
The color of pale snow in appearance, Hakuso is fresh and pure on the nose, with apple, muscat grape and creamy, herbal nuances coming through in its flavors. It is smooth and semi-sweet on the palate, with delicate tartness and airy foam imparting refreshing character. Round in the middle with a pleasing minerality; umami and sweetness from Yamadanishiki rice spread in layers and effervescence gives a long, creamy finish.
To reduce the risk of Hakuso foaming over on opening, ensure the bottle is thoroughly chilled just prior to uncorking.
AROMA
Fresh and aromatic, Hakuso’s aromas recall ripe white peach, muscat grape and lily flower. A smoothness, like sour cream, wafts forward and mingles with refreshing herb and mint nuances.
MOUTHFEEL
Hakuso is smooth on the palate, buttery and semi-sweet. A pleasing tartness ties the mouthfeel together, while the gentle effervescence brings elegance and freshness.
FINISH
On the tail, long-lasting tartness and mildly bitter minerality while effervescence creates a lingering, creamy impression on the finish.
PAIRING
Simple and fresh beats more complex dishes for pairing with Hakuso. Simple seafood preparations, seasonal fresh fruits, savory prosciutto, shrimp and lobster make great pairing bases. Hakuso is also delicious as an aperitif.
