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.

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.
Shinsei Nenrei (ecru) 2023.
It is the middle day of a three-day weekend, and I feel like drinking Shinmasa for the first time in a while, so I pull out a bottle of 2023 Ecru!
According to the label, it was shipped in April 2024, so it has been stored in ice temperature for a year and a half.
It is interesting to note the apricot-like top nose, and as the label states, there is indeed a hint of shiso as well.
In the mouth, it has a smooth texture and has gained a mellow maturity through aging. The sweet and sour acidity extends and expands while the finish is clean and fades away, demonstrating the light and crisp characteristics of Akita Sakekomachi without regret. It is a delicious Ecru after all!
At the usual bar.
They stock a lot of Shinsei, thank goodness.
It is as delicious as ever.
Apricot-like acidity, rich taste, delicious.
The clarity of this junmai is amazing!
