I noticed that the quality assurance expiration date had passed, so I opened the bottle.
It had been a long time since it took me more than 10 minutes to open the bottle.
Sour and sweet like grapefruit sprinkled with sugar. No bitterness, and it drinks smoothly.

Shinsei Colors Tangerine
I've only had drinks in the standing area at Hashi Tokyo! 😊
I could see the tangerine so I locked on to it before I even entered 😁🍊.
I had 3 glasses of Tangerine with delicious food...the 3rd time was indeed too persistent and embarrassing to order... 🫣.
Good evening, Mr. Kumacha 😃.
You had a nice drink for your anniversary! I can drink as many glasses of the good stuff as I want👍
I entered the drawing for the Tangerine at the liquor store the other day... but it looks like I missed out 😭.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙Thanks for your comment!
I love all things Shinsei, but when I see tangerine on the shelf, I'm like "Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 😊🍊
I like the color of the label too, it's very energizing!
So it's a lottery at the liquor store, duh 😣😣.
There was a significant snowfall over the weekend and it piled up. We were able to enjoy the inorganic, yet mellow and deep flavor of Shinsei. It was a taste that went down your throat easily and felt right at home.

Shinsei Low-polished Junmai Shu Nirvana Kame
Rating 4.4
12-13% alc.
In order to revive the essence of sake from the Edo period, this junmai-shu is brewed with a so-called low-polishing rate of around 90% for both koji and kake rice. Normally, brewing sake with rice that has been almost completely unpolished is extremely difficult, as it tends to produce a cloying taste. This sake is made with the best of the brewery's ginjo-making techniques, while at the same time expressing the elegance of a modern ginjo. From the 2019 harvest, the rice will be made in wooden vats, embodying a more traditional form. The process of brewing has evolved remarkably, and the future growth potential is unlimited. This is a brew that fans are encouraged to follow.
It is low-alcoholic and gentle, with a mildly complex essence of rice, and a slightly strong acidity.
Today's year-end party 🤩.
So, after the after-party, I went to my usual restaurant 🌞 to have a few drinks since the restaurant was open at that time.
I looked at the menu and saw Shinsei... 😳
I ordered it right away 😊.
I haven't had R-TYPE in a while 🤩.
It has a sweet aroma, fresh taste, wine-like acidity and is easy to drink 😍.
It's still delicious 😁.
Hi Kano 😃
It's the season for year-end parties 🍶.
I'm worried that if I drink Shinsei in between drinking sessions, I'll have to drink...💦 afterwards😅.
I hope you enjoy your year-end party as well 🥰.
Good morning Kano!
😁✨✨✨
It's great that you can still drink after going to the after-party of the year-end party 😁✨✨✨.
It's nice to close the party in a relaxed atmosphere at your usual place 😍
I haven't seen Shinmasa at all lately😅
Good evening, Kano 😃.
I'm a big beer and shochu drinker at year-end parties 🥳, so I don't always have time for sake 🍶 afterwards 😅I'm glad you're here, Kano-san! You've got plenty of time 😙.
Good evening, ma-ki!
We didn't have much time before our favorite restaurant closed, so we could only drink a little, but we were able to finish with our favorite sake 😍.
