Rated 4.5
Rice: Akita Sake Komachi, 8° alcohole, 60% polished rice, production date: 2025.04, hi-ire.
While fire-aged, the secondary fermentation in the bottle makes it slightly effervescent and fresh. It has a pear and muscat aroma, but is less sweet and more acidic and refreshing than the usual Amaeru. Dry.

I wonder..!
It's been sitting for a year and a half 😴.
I like the sweet and sour taste of the chili fine gas stimulation, wood vat feeling and honey-like aroma 😌.
Delicious ♡♡♡♡
Good evening, Kotori 😃.
Viridian💚.
As you wrote on the back, you have refrigerated it for a year or two 😁 Looks delicious 😋.
I always read it as viridian myself 🤣I want to drink viridian 🤩.
Good morning, Hiro-san 🐥.
I love the light but deep, elegant sweet and sour taste 🥰Viridian is soon to be sold out 😢I waited until the recommended time and it was worth it ♡♡♡♡.
Good evening, Tsubu-chan 🐥.
Yes ♡ thanks 😉 As expected, we couldn't have them all in No.6✨ like the Tsubu family, but we could enjoy a secret celebratory drink 🤭 with the Viridian at the right time 🥰.
Shinsei Ecru
This was the first Niimasa I bought and drank.
It was ecru. ❗️
And I remember being impressed and liking it: ‼️
Now I'm a little tempted to try Cosmos, but I still like it.
I still enjoy it when I drink it lol
What was your first Shinsei purchase❓
Good evening, kdo-🦉.
It's so emotional to drink a memorable bottle again😊and it's also great that it tastes so good no matter how many times you drink it👍✨.
My first was a flax cat spark 🐈️🫧
Good morning, Ponchan. ☀️
Every time I go there I get older and soak in the emotion that this is how it all started 😂.
Spark is delicious too❗️
The schwarziness is beyond Japanese sake ❗️
Check-in 666
I couldn't get No. 6 for a long time.
I finally decided to open a bottle of this sake that had been waiting in the cellar.
The glass still has thin bubbles on it.
It still has thin bubbles in the glass and feels a bit chippy.
But the fresh acidity and fruitiness has calmed down too much, and the sweetness is all over the place.
It was a pity that the sharp acidity typical of Niimasa rounded out too much and gave a somewhat blurred impression.
However, it was not that it was not tasty, but the creamy texture was precious.
However, I feel that it would have been better to drink it a little earlier at our house.
It went better with pizza topped with shiso than with Japanese food.
Good evening, Luteltemi!
Congratulations on your 666 check-in 🎉!
A milestone sake with the No. 6 yeast Shinsei-sama - wonderful and I'm jealous 🤤.
The bubbles are wonderful 😍.
There's also the timing of drinking time 😅.
Hello Luteltemi 😃
666 check in Congratulations 🎊㊗️
666 is still Shinsei 😊 just look at the bubbles in your wine glass 😍 it looks delicious!
Shiso topped pizza 🍕 sounds good 😍.
Congratulations on your 666 check-in, Lutemi: ㊗️🎊🎉!
Viridian in 2020😳even the bubbles on the glass look delicious🫧🤤.
Maybe not quite to your liking 😅I'm also interested in the Viridian with more maturity: ☺️
Thank you ma-ki-😊I'm glad I was able to take the plunge as I couldn't quite find the opportunity to open the bottle. I was surprised that the bubbles were still firmly in place.
But I wish I had opened the bottle at least a year ago.
Thank you, Ao😊I'm the one who can't open a bottle of Shinsei without something else 😂The shiso strangely tightened up the flavor of the rounded sweetness, which was a bit bland unfortunately 😋.
Thank you Aladdin 😊I was disappointed that the unique acidity of the new Masa was too rounded to be felt very much. But I could feel the deep, mild sweetness 😋It would have been more delicious if the cellar was better 🦆.
Good evening, Luteltemi 😃.
Congratulations on your 666 check-in ㊗️ 🎉You made us wait a long time 🤗
Japanese style pizza with shiso topping 🍕 sounds like a good match 😋.
Thank you Jay & Nobby 😊I regret that I should have opened the bottle a little earlier, but I enjoyed the elegant deep sweetness. It went well with the shiso flavor 🍕.
Congratulations on your 666 check-in, Lutemi 🎉🎊!
I often read that Shinsei tastes better when it's laid out for a long time, but I tend to drink it 😻I'm very curious about this one that's been laid out for a long time 💦.
Pon, thank you 😊I was able to enjoy the deep sweetness, but perhaps the temperature control was poor, I could not feel the unique sourness too much and it felt blah. Next time I'll drink it right away🤣.
Thank you for your comment, ma-ki-! Yesterday I was lucky enough to get a mouthful from the waiter who asked me if I wanted to open an X type. and I was able to get a mouthful 😊It was really great, freshly opened and well chilled. ☺️
