Although it is supposed to be sweet, it is not that sweet, but rather the acidity derived from malic acid is more assertive.
Since it is made with yeast No. 77, it has a very strong apple-like fruitiness.
Well, it was delicious. It may be the No.1 among the ones I have purchased so far. It has a more umakuchi (flavorful) taste, more like Omachi. It tastes better after a long time than when it is freshly opened. The same brewery also produces Kame-no-o sake, so I would like to try that next time.
It is made entirely from Akaban Omachi and has a full-bodied sweetness and a crisp quality, giving the impression of a summer sake that is not tiring to drink. It was delicious.
It's delicious with a deliciously schwirly mouthfeel!
It's dry, but not too dry, and the balance is just right for this time of year!
Goes well with fish!
A strange taste. For a moment there is no impression on the palate, but then a dark spiciness appears and leaves the palate. It is like a riddle that makes you want to take another sip. At an airport lounge.
This is a very peculiar sake, as it was introduced as a metamorphic sake.
It has acidity, a sense of maturity, and a rich umami.
I haven't reached this level yet 😅.

My brother came back to Japan temporarily from overseas, and we had a lunch with my family. I thought it would go well with sushi.
We had it with cold sake.
When I poured it into the glass, there were fine bubbles at the bottom.
The color is clear and almost transparent.
The top aroma is mild and slightly citrusy. It was described as a floral type, but I don't think I feel it that much.
Tingling stimulation of the mouthfeel raw sake.
On the palate, fresh acidity and tingling stimulation are felt on the tongue, while bitterness is somewhat stronger. Not much sweetness, but umami and bitterness with a crisp finish.
Well, it was rumored to be gorgeous and sweet for Shinomineshi, but personally, I found it to be a refreshing bitterness.

Last weekend, I gave up on buying because of the terrible 🌀wind 🌀but instead went to a nearby liquor store and bought a bottle of 14 degrees, which I have been liking lately! But I forgot my reading glasses and couldn't see the words on the label at all! But I forgot my reading glasses 👓 and couldn't read the label at all 😓.
The one that was chosen out of the three was not (5) or (7), but (6), which I have been wanting to drink for a long time 🤗.
At the cashier, the shopkeeper told us to drink it slowly because it was a bit hard, and we looked like we knew what we were talking about 😊... but we were drinking with sensitivity and had no knowledge of alcohol 😅 here's the conversation we had after we got home
Nobby: "What do you mean by hard?"
Jay: "It means it's not open."
Nobby: "What's not open?"
Jay: "You know, that thing! It's hard."
Can someone please tell me the correct answer?
I'll make love to you if it's hard
I'll love you with the hard one 🧐.
I wish I could tell you how good it is 😅It's good right from the start! It's a refreshing and crisp bottle with the acidity we like 😙 half the lid on the first day and the rest on Wednesday.
Oh! I feel like the acidity is sharper 😚 I don't know if I'm saying it right 🤔It's like a sharp sensation... not the other way around: ⁉️
Conclusion: both the first day and the third day were good 😙.
That's all I have to say.
Hi Jay & Nobby😊.
Is it hard...guard 🤣 like I'm not giving you the real taste yet, like a girlfriend you just started dating? 🤣
Not that it matters, but some sake has a very hard stopper: ☝️
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃.
I'm sure you'll feel quite a difference with 16° when you'd rather drink 14°💦.
But if it tasted good, then the result is all good 😉.
Stiff... that's it... it's stiff. Maybe some flexibility exercises would help 🤣.
Good evening Jay & Nobby😄!
The Shinomine Rokumaru looks delicious 😍I've seen it a few times in restaurants so I'll try it ✨but I'm also curious about the three day sharp ✨but either is fine as long as it's good 😁.
Good evening Jay & Nobby 🌛What do you mean by hard? Imagine a petal🌷it's like a bud 🌷it's like a bud 🤣but anything is fine as long as it tastes good 😋13 degrees might be easier to drink these days 🤤.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌙
I looked up the word "hard" and it seems to be something like "angular" or "under-aged" 🤔.
I've been wondering about Shinomine, but I've always been interested in those two brands when it comes to Nara 😅.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🦉.
I'm too hard headed to come up with anything 🤣.
I've only had the pink rokumaru, but I'm sure it easily passed international J&N standards 😊It looks especially good in the summer!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
Summer is the time for lower strength drinks ✨.
I don't care about the strength as long as I can drink it 😁.
I can't get over how hard this one is 💦.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 😊Hard...my perception is that it has a corner to the flavor ☝️ but it sounds like it was delicious, and good sake is delicious after all 😁.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
Shinomine is a sake that I've been curious about but haven't been able to bring along, so this is the year I want to try it.
Hard...hard...hard...hard... 💤😪💤.
If it was good from start to finish, no problem 😁.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🍶.
Congratulations on getting the Ura Shinomine 🍾 I would drink it up before the taste changes 🤭.
With Kaze no Mori, it's the gasiness and acidity right after opening the bottle. The difference in mild taste after the gassy feeling is gone?
Hi there, freelancer first generation man 😃.
Yes, I might hear that! I kind of thought it was something like open it up and let it sit in the air for a while before... 🤔 but 😅 it sounds like you're a connoisseur if you can say this kind of thing so smoothly 🙂.
Hi Hina Hana mama 😃.
I thought 🤔 I could go 16 degrees normally 🤗 Maybe my old liver is slowing me down along with my old eyes 😆.
I see! Flexibility exercises 👍I guess I should unwind with a beer 🍺 first 😁.
Hi Nao888 😃
I see! So it's like a bud, waiting to bloom 🤔 I guess that means you have to wait for it to bloom ‼️
Oh yeah! In the end, good taste is justice 👍Low al in summer is good too 😙.
Hi shinsaku3 😃
There are many different ways to describe it! Maybe everyone has their own way of feeling "hard" 🤗.
Definitely the right answer is that it was delicious 😋.
Hi Kachi Kachi Yama 😃.
Thank you for checking us out👍It kind of feels like that 🤗.
We too have a lot of that two-top in Nara 😅Shinomine-san, please try to taste it 👋.
Hi Pon 😃
I'm sure your bare, hard head will be a lot softer if you drink it 🤗 although it might be too squishy 🤣.
I passed the J&N standards perfectly even on my first day 👍.
Hello, Attached Mourning God 😃.
I finally got it 😊 yes! I really should have given it more time 😅.
The wind forest 🌳 is the one I killed in the blink of an eye, you never know 🤣.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby. ☺️
Shinomine, I like it too♥️I haven't had it recently🤔I haven't had it in a while, but I feel like having a drink☺️ and it's still hard, yes, but it gets softer and softer 🤣.
Hi Jun-san 😃
Shinomine-san started with the wrong kanji and finally made it to Rokumaru! It's good 😋.
Yes, it is! But you know, good food is good no matter how hard or soft it is 😆.
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good morning...
The label is old-fashioned but quaint and suitable for summer 🤩I wonder if it means that the sake has horns, which is often said to be hard 🤔How do I explain horns 🤣.
Shinomine Yuuzanishiki Nama-iro Nama-iro Nama-shu Rokumaru
Moderately sweet flavor with a hint of sourness and bitterness.
It has a sourness and bitterness. It's a sake that goes well with a meal.
This is good!
