Today was the last day of work, and there are only a few days left in 2025.
Today I had a bottle of Shinshu Kamerei, which was given to me by my mother and has not been drunk at home for a long time. The aroma is a gorgeous apple-like ginjo aroma.
It has a delicious spiciness in the mouth, and a roughness that is characteristic of new sake. It has been a delicate impression so far, but this time it has a core.
It is delicious with dried fish, canned crab, and oyaki. I would like to try it with Nozawa no Oyu-ni (Nozawa oil stew) 😊Delicious✨.
Xmas at the Shinmachi branch 🎄
The last greeting of the year②🍶.
The second sake is "Shinshu Kamerei Nagano Yamae Nishiki Junmai Ginjo" 🍶.
Yamae Nishiki is not yet available this season, so it is said to be from last BY.
Personally, it has been a long time since I have had a Shinshu Kamerei!
The exterior is a nearly transparent silver crystal.
The aroma is intoxicating with a fresh sweet fruity ginjo aroma.
Aromas of apple, pear, and melon are mellow, yet not overdone.
The rice aroma is about the size of a white dumpling.
The texture is smooth, with a hint of dusty gas 🫧.
The juicy sweetness spreads with a strong fruity sweetness coupled with soft acidity.
There is a sense of coolness escape, but also a beautiful flavor flow.
The balance between the firm, dark flavor and the clear smoothness is intoxicating.
The finish is crisp and fruity.
It is still delicious. ☺️
The fire-aged version has been aged for more than half a year and has a softer texture, which is also intoxicating.
While talking about sake with the owner, Mr. Kawada, we moved on to the last sake.
Unusually for Shinshu Kamerei, it has a strong acidity.
Since it was produced in June, it may have been left a little too long. ......?
But it is still delicious!
Postscript
Maybe it's still a little twisted: .......

Yesterday was Christmas Eve🎄.
I looked for a green or red sake from my stock, but I opened a bottle of this one with the greenest bottle.
It has been sleeping for more than a year and a half, so let's wake up and have it!
The raw hiney aroma I was worried about 🙆🙆It's totally fine.
Yesterday I felt the green label was enough, but this one is fresh & fruity without any clutter 😋.
Last year in early spring, it was available at the brewery store for quite a long time!
This year it was immediately changed to fire-brewed!
I wonder what will happen to 2026😥.
The collaboration sake cups are 2024 and 2025 🍶.
The nose is fruity and rather acidic.
The mouthfeel is smooth and firm.
In the mouth, sweetness and acidity stand out.
The umami and bitterness follow a little later.
The bitterness is a bit strong.
4/5
Before the year-end party 0️⃣ after party ✌️ (on a different day💦)
I met the manager at the liquor store during the day and he was stocking Shinshu Kamerei, so I stopped by 🚶.
Sake 🍶 before the sake year-end party in Yokohama.
Delicious 😋.
I went to the sake brewery and bought it. It is good, of course, but Shinshu Kamerei's sake has a quality that is best described as "clear" or "pure". You feel happiness when you sip it. I think it is a hard-to-find sake, but if you happen to come across it, please do not hesitate to buy it.

Yesterday was Christmas Day 🎄Eve Eve
So we opened a bottle of Green Label.
With the sake cup (2024) collaborated with Haruya Abe (^^)
Well, I'm happy enough with this one 😉.
I paired it with Ding's 2nd day 😀.
I guess it's the water... Shinshu Kamerei, Ding, Yamasan, they are close 😋.
I'll have another green or red sake today, I have to find something 🐢.
First Shinshu Kamerei.
Very clean and fruity, yet full-bodied and wonderfully balanced.
There is no doubt that this is a very top-class, orthodox wine.
This will sell, that's for sure.
I went to the brewery in Nagano!
I still love it so much 🥰.
It's fruity like a pear, and it's so tasty and full in the mouth!
It's so delicious!
I will visit again next year!
Thanks for the food 😋.
