According to the Hostapedia by Mark Zillis they're both wrong!

I don't see anything in that entry indicating their both wrong, just that 'Choko Nishiki' has been marketed under 'On Stage'. It's now considered correct to use the name 'Choko Nishiki'.

I'm just pointing out that there's no hyphens in the name in the Hostapedia
