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.
Alcohol content: 15
Rice used:Undisclosed
Rice polishing ratio:40
This is a limited distribution sake of Shinmasa for Akita Prefecture.
It is registered as one of the Shinmasa brands because the registration is likely to be buried under "Sato Ubei".
Ubei Sato is the name assumed by the head of the Shinmasa Brewery.
The taste is typical of Shinsei, with a predominant acidity.
It has the same alcohol content as the No. 6 series, and the fruity taste is still the same, making it very clean and easy to drink.
It was a valuable experience.
