The second one I never thought I would buy. Purchased this along with Senkori Momiji UA. It is refreshing, but the umami sweetness of the rice is quite strong. I feel it is somewhat Akita-like sake. It is delicious.

It has arrived✨
This package tickles my girlish fancy 🥰.
When shall I open it?
I guess it's Christmas after all because of the color 🎄.

Clear and colorless
Mild and powdery aroma for a 50% polished product.
Fruity aroma: sweet banana with a hint of iso, and some grain like barley.
Slightly sweet on the attack.
The rich umami is balanced by a gentle acidity, and the texture is gently full.
Slowly developing and persistent bitterness.
Yuki no Bijin's nextfive
The slowly developing bitterness of the improved Nobuko is well controlled by the sweetness, acidity, and umami, giving the impression of a more cohesive flavor than Haruka.
Although the flavor itself is robust, the mild aroma makes it a good pairing with local sweet flavored dishes.

100% improved Nobukou, 15% alcohol.
Colorless and transparent.
Sweet and gorgeous aroma. The impression is more like white sugar, cotton candy, and marshmallow than fresh sweetness of fruits and flowers.
The taste is also soft and gentle sweetness from the attack. From the mid-palate, there is a delicate acidity, and in the second half, a slightly juicy acidity and a moderately firm sharpness. The lingering taste is light and delicious.
Impressive sake quality with soft sweetness and a delicate, light mouthfeel. It may be overpowered by dishes with strong flavors. Enjoy it mainly with sake.

I traveled to Hokuriku, where my parents live, for a three-day weekend. But due to my busy schedule, I couldn't even buy a bottle of sake as a souvenir 😭. I thought I'd open up a bottle of good sake to get rid of the blues.
I won the Sakenomy lottery. I guess I'm lucky again this year. The bottle of this sake is just so nice. I've never seen a glass lid before.
The aroma is gentle citrus and a little lactic acid. A little bit of cemedine when it gets close to room temperature. No gassiness.
The sweetness is quite restrained. The strong but refreshing acidity is pleasant.
The second half is also mainly acidic, and finishes crisply when a slight bitterness is sensed. The lingering taste is astringent.
It is quite a dry sake. But as one would expect from Niimasa, it is very tasty. It is very refined, easy to drink, and goes down very smoothly. I realized once again that this is a very special sake.

Today is 10/5, so we will drink NEXT5, a drink associated with 5 😌.
This is the first new product in two years! The "NEXT5 Colors 2022" series was previously a joint brewery, but now the five breweries can make the most of their individual characteristics, including yeast, except for the 50% milled rice ratio of Akita-produced "Kensho Shinko. It is an interesting experiment for each sake brewer to be able to enjoy different expressions of their respective characteristics 😆.
I naturally went for the Niimasa version!
This sake seems to be very rare and can only be drunk at izakaya (Japanese style pubs) 😲I was lucky to get it because the sake shop gave me a bottle of NEXT5 that they had kept for their own consumption 🥺 I must savor it and cherish it! I need to drink it...
The taste is...
It's completely Shinsei. The yeast must be No.6 and I thought it tasted similar to No.6🤔It's so delicious and I'm going to drink it with care... but with low alcohol, it will be gone soon😱.
The bottle was designed by architect Tsuyoshi Tane and is very beautiful and it's a glass stopper 😲.
Dix ans - I'm sure it will be a bottle I won't throw away along with Noël✨

Good morning, Shiri 😊.
I love it, I would love to drink it.
I applied for the lottery over here.
I applied for the lottery over here, but I heard it's dozens of times more than the lottery, so you can't win 😅.

Hello Pon, Hello☆(*´ч`*)
I could buy a whole bunch of Shinsei! I like the sour ones and I really like Shinsei and Koei Kiku 😌 Recently I'm starting to think Sentori is good too 🤔.

Manachy, I didn't think it was that rare either, but I looked it up on social media and didn't see many people reviewing it...thanks to the liquor store really 😂This was a great new Masa NEXT5, both in taste and bottle ✨✨.

しぇり〜
Haruei Chichi, actually I only post good sake 😅I go to the liquor store every 2 days so I drink many other kinds of sake. I don't take a day off from sake every day! The picture was taken with the light shining on the bottle from below ✨.

Erin, good morning 😌.
I can't get rid of these beautiful bottles... I've been following only Shinmasa this year, but sake from Tohoku is still good🤔I'm planning to go to Tohoku for 3 weekends!

Joe, since the end of last year I've had a good relationship with Shinsei and this time I miraculously got it again 😂✨It's amazing that Joe's Hall of Fame only has NEXT5! I wish I could get the NEXT5 from other breweries too 😲...

Harry Sakeboy, I'd like to try NEXT5 from other breweries but I can't seem to get it 😅I don't think I'll win the lottery so I've been going to all the distributors but I'll give up on NEXT5 except Shinsei💦.

Hi, Shelli~! I'm so glad you're here 😄.
I'm totally a family member that the liquor store is giving away their own 🤣I hope I can drink it somewhere too 🤤.

Hi MAJ☆(*´ч`*)
I asked him about NEXT5 so many times that he had no choice but to give it to me 🙄 I thought I needed to be 30% reserved and 70% push against the liquor store 😁.

Slightly translucent, honey-like aroma.
It has a soft mouthfeel with a firm umami and a rather strong alcohol taste. In the latter half, bitterness gradually spreads and finishes off.
A little more sweetness would balance it out.

100% Modified Nobukou, Polishing ratio 50%.
ALC 16 degrees
The color is clear and colorless. The aroma is gorgeous, with impressions of white flowers and fresh fruits such as grapefruit. Polished rice top-fruit. The alcohol tang is also pleasantly strong for its strength.
The palate has a smooth, slightly thickened texture. The attack has a juicy impression with an acidity reminiscent of citrus fruits. The second half is tightened by a firm sharpness and bitterness. The lingering umami and aftertaste are not strong, and the finish is light.
Perhaps because of its sharpness, the overall impression is of a light mouthfeel, but the flavor elements are quite strong, especially in the first half, and it is interesting that the wine is also very drinkable.

While watching fireworks on TV.
Softly fragrant.
Refreshing and good while eating!
I want to decorate this bottle.
I wonder if I can get 5 bottles!

It has a deep, sweet fruitiness reminiscent of the opulence of yaezakura (double cherry) rather than someiyoshino (cherry).
It was a rare chance encounter. So it was a collaboration with Pierre Hermé. Rich muscat. Too delicious 😆.

I was so drunk, I don't even remember tasting it, what a waste🤣.
