I've never seen this color in Colors before.
Citrusy, juicy, fresh, sweet and sour.
Wow, that's all I can say about the taste!
I took my time to enjoy it as I knew there would be no more next time!
The sea eel sashimi was also delicious!
Fukuhara Sake Shop hanpukai
This is my first time drinking tangerine. This sake has a pleasant sweetness and acidity.
The citrusy aroma like mandarin oranges and oranges, the acidity, and the slightly bitter taste make it refreshing and easy to drink.
It refreshed the oiliness of the duck hot pot and both the hot pot and sake were delicious.
The exquisite bitterness is delicious.
It has been a while since I had a bottle of Shinsei.
The last time I drank Flaxcat was last June, so it has been a year and a half since I last had it.
It is hard to believe that it is made from rice, as the color of the label suggests, it tastes sweet and sour like plums and cherries. At the same time, the aroma of the wooden vat is clearly noticeable.
This fruitiness and transparency in a freshly opened bottle of Shinmasa is hard to find elsewhere.
It tastes transparent when it is freshly snow-cold from the refrigerator, but when you raise the temperature by wrapping your hand around the glass, a complex and diverse array of aroma and flavor elements bloom like flowers in a field of grass.
It transcends the boundaries of sake and is outstandingly delicious as a beverage. Come to think of it, when you are drinking Niimasa, you may not be tasting it on the scale you usually do when drinking sake.
In my current sphere of activity, Shinsei is only available in a tying-up package. It is a higher hurdle than Jyushiyo and Jikin.
When will I be able to find which Shinsei next?
I will wait without expectation.
The 5th Shinmae Festival, the 5th Kanno Thanksgiving Mie Shinshu Matsuri (1)
Well, it was getting close to the start time, and I went there before the time thinking that there would be a line from Shinsei anyway, but there were already about 15 people in line.
I checked before the festival started and found that there was only one Cosmos sake, so I decided to drink it even though I had my doubts.
I talked with a person who was just standing in line next to me, and he told me that he was a local and participated in the event every year as a group, so I gathered some information.
He told us to come and eat at his base camp, where he had set up a base camp for snacks and entrees, so we joined the group, talked about drinks, and were served.
◉Shinsei Cosmos Label
The first sake I drank at the party was the Cosmos Label, which I thought would have a strong acidity, but it didn't. The acidity was not too strong, but rather mild and weak. It was not too harsh and had a mild, weak acidity, but it was still a good Shinsei.
From the very beginning, I asked for a small amount to be poured at all the booths.
The system of this event is that you can drink as much as you want with your wristband, so there is no harm in asking for a small amount, but with a ticket, you can't drink too many kinds because you can fill your inokuchi to overflowing with the 500 yen amount.
Also, the people who deal with the booths are not many kurabito (brewers), but more employees from places like Okage Yokocho.
Also, it is fatal that it takes a long time to tear off the tickets at each booth.
Sweet aroma like pineapple and figs🍍⛰️
On the palate, a little gasiness and soft mouthfeel, plus a faint wood vat aroma 🪵☀️
The rich sweetness is like plum, fig, pineapple, and the No. 6 acidity is outstanding ✨🥰.
After all, Yonotori is too delicious❤️
And this lot is a jackpot 🎯💯!
It made me happy 🥴.
This is one of the hardest and driest bottles in the Colors series.
Along with the fresh gasiness of direct pumping, the sharp acidity characteristic of Shinsei jumps in.
My personal feeling is that it has a delicious ink-like minerality.
The structure of the wine, which does not rely on sweetness, but only on the backbone of acidity and umami, is superb.
It is also good for cutting the oil from a fatty meal.
When poured into a boar's mouth, the energetic bubbles pop.
The aroma is refreshing, almost apple-like.
It is light on the palate and low in alcohol.
You can drink it just like a juice.
The sweet and sour taste refreshed me to the max!
