Commercial Description:
Hakusan Plum Sake brings to mind springtime's snow-fragrant plum blossoms falling gently in the garden. It is an enticing blend of premium sake, brewed from the best short grain rice and pure plum extract, we make it here, in the Napa Valley, for you to serve to your guests over ice as an ap´ritif, with dessert, or as the finale´ to a fine meal. 8% alcohol, pair with Chinese food or pour over sliced pineapple or oranges. Please note: due to the addition of natural plum extract, sediment may be present, but not harmful to your health.

Pinkish peach color with a watery appearance. The aroma is of light koji and plums, artificial and VERY medicinal. The flavor is cloying sweet with a sour taste of antiseptic and light alcohol. Finishes thick and lingering with the crappyness. Too sweet and artificial tasting without enough sake nuances.

pinkish in color,mild fruity aroma with maybe a hint of alcohol,the fruit is hard to describe,maybe a bit of plum but since i’m not a fan of plums it would be hard to say for sure.The flavor comes off as very sweet and mildly fruity with a light hint of alcohol in the finish.It’s not bad but then it’s not great eather.I guess as far as the other Sake’s i’ve had this one is not to my liking,but should be tryed atleast once just due to the cheap price.

The appearance is pinkish yellow. Aroma is apples and plum. The flavor is mostly apples? I can barely detect any plums present in this one. The aftertaste is sticky and syrupy. My only complaint is that it’s too sweet.

Sweet aroma. Light pink color. Flavor is very sweet, but I didn't taste plums. Light. I'm glad I tried it...

Quite an enjoyable and inexspensive Sake. Not great but drinkable with a light meal. Nice rose colour..good plum aroma not too sickly..taste is a little on the ultra sweet side but not to bad.Nce and easy to drink however..an OK sake.
