My father asked the liquor store he has known for a long time to get a bottle for me 🥹Thank you 🥂.
As you can see on the back label, it has a refreshing aroma of kabosu (citrus fruit) 🥂🥂I took a sip and couldn't get enough of the sweet and sour taste of shinmasa 🥴, while the light aftertaste cuts through quickly, so if no one stops me, it will be gone in no time😇
It's always a great drink... 🍶✨
Following yesterday's Ash, today we opened a bottle of Flax Cat Sparkling 😀.
It's hard to open a bottle of a sake that you can't open often, so you have to be very active to open a bottle 🤣.
All I've been able to get lately is regular Flaxcat, and it's been a really long time since I've had a bottle of Flaxcat Sparkling 😀.
I guess it depends on your taste, but I personally prefer sparkling 😇.
But still, it's a very energetic drink and I haven't had a blowout in a while 😅.
I couldn't believe it was made in a wooden vat with the same raw yeast as Ash, I could feel fruits reminiscent of muscat, probably from the acidity derived from the bubbles😇.
Personally, Flax Cat Sparkling is one of my top favorite sakes from Shinsei 😀.
I also enjoyed today's sake comparison😇
Good morning, Yasbay😃.
We love Flax Cat Spark too 🤗I can't forget that first time I drank it 🥹😌I honestly can't get over that after the second bottle 😅But it's delicious!
Hi Jay & Nobby 😀
I too was so shocked the first time I drank it that after that I could only comment on how good it tasted no matter how many times I drank it 🤣.
Hi Yasbay 🐦🐦.
The first time I drank Shinsei was with Flax Cat Spark, so it's a memorable taste for me too😊It's not easy to come across this one too, so I might forget to blow it 😆.
But still, it's a luxurious drinking experience 😍.
Good evening, Pon-chan 😀
I see that Pon-chan did the same😇.
If the first one is shocking, you won't be able to say another word 🤣.
I can't open the bottle if there's nothing to open, on the other hand, when I do, it keeps on going 😅.
Peco from Osaka
Peco from Osaka came for a wild visit. He said he wanted to drink and I could gather the usual mahjong 🀄️ club members, i.e., those who are not of (mental) age. There, Peco, a perverted sake lover and a Masamune hunter approached me and said
Noci, MAJ, Rigel-kun, Hiro, Matsuchiyo-san, Peco, and me.
We had a fun party with 7 people. This restaurant offers an all-you-can-drink unlimited course on Saturdays. Yee-haw!
And I'm posting a bottle of Rigel's Shinsei 😆.
No, because it was so delicious. Thank you very much 😊.
I was worried that Hiro-san and Matsuchiyo-san would be drawn to the Mahjong club, but that wasn't the case at all. Oh, it's a compliment 😄.
Peco was also very flirtatious (maybe she was too tired and excited) and it was a fun time. I wonder how many hours we drank. Did we stay until closing time? My memory is hazy.
Good evening, Ane-san. Thank you very much for your help over the weekend! Well, I don't remember anything 🤣just your faces and names👌I had a great time meeting you all 🤗Thank you all so much!
Good evening Ane-san & thank you for your hard work 🍶.
It's fun to drink sake with other sake lovers and above all, the sake tastes great 😊.
I look forward to meeting you again when the timing is right.
Good morning, Hiro 😃.
I have the photos, so you can give your impressions of what you drank from now on 😉 I'll say this since everyone's age is known, but good adults got too excited (from the photos).
Good morning, Peco 🌷
I was surprised when I was first asked about it, but I'm glad we could hold it safely and had fun💕If you made it back to the hotel, the party was a success! The next day was fun too, I hope you enjoyed your trip to Tokyo! See you soon!
Good morning, Matsuchiyo 😁.
You must have been surprised to see me shake out of my strange talk 🍞. I was able to go home without getting drunk even though I drank a lot when I looked at the pictures. I think it was because we drank slowly while talking.
It's time for new sake, so I opened it to clear out the fridge.
It had been sitting for 2 years since I bought it, but the gassy feeling was still there!
Highly acidic, with a white wine-like muscateliness.
It could have been aged longer.
Shinsei Tangerine is still delicious!
I was really happy to be able to drink it this time, as it was one I couldn't easily buy myself: ☺️
The softness in the mouth and the unique world view of Fukunohana's umami spreading quickly... the fire-brewed "Colors" series of Shinsei is very special. The refreshing sharpness of the tangerine also made me fall in love with it all over again 🍶✨.
I hope we can meet again someday 🙏!
Today was a nice day, so we opened a bottle of KOCHIRA Shinsei 😀.
I've had most of the Niimasa Colors, but this is the first time I've had the all-black label Suiboku 😀.
I've heard that it tastes better if it's aged for a while, so I aged it in the freezing cellar for more than a year😇.
I could not feel any aging at all, in fact, the taste was rather beautiful and I could feel the fresh yeast and wooden vat feeling 😇.
I knew that Shinmasa is a great sake 😀.
Good morning, Yasubeyesan 🌞I've been too luckless with Shinsei to come across it lately 😭I'm impressed that you aged it to improve sake quality ✨I would have let it age on its own because it's too good to be true 😅.
Good evening, Nao888 😀
I heard from sakéwa information that it tastes better if you leave it longer, so I left it for more than a year, but if I leave it any longer, I'm afraid I'll forget about it 😅.
Good evening, Wakata!
I can't open the bottle without some reason, so I'm hoping to open it for something a little better to make me feel better 🤣.
I'm glad you asked about it at Sake no Wa and let it mature😇.
Hi Hiro, good evening 😀
Personally, I like Shinshu Kamerei and Jikin more among the pre-sake, so Shinmasa might not need that much courage to open the bottle 🤣.
I can't open a bottle of 🐢 without a bigger reason 😅.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
If you can't usually open a bottle of sake, you'll miss the chance to drink it if you don't open it for some reason, even if it's just a little bit 🤣.
Hi Yasbaye 🐦.
Opening a good drink on a good day, that's a phrase I'd like to put up as a poster in my liquor store ✨Ash I haven't seen it since I went over budget and passed on it 💦 I'm jealous that I haven't been able to drink it 😍.
Good evening, Pon 😀
Of all the Colors, Ash was the only one I hadn't had before, so I couldn't help myself 🤣.
But now that I've had it once, maybe 2 bottles of Cosmos would be better next time😅.
When the bottle was opened, it had a tangy feeling,
I felt the acidity among the Niimasa.
However, I opened 750 bottles in no time,
I didn't get drunk at all, even though I drank and drank,
It didn't leave a residue the next day either,
It was a happy sake.
