Shinsei No.6 S-type
It's been a while since I've had No.6!
It's still delicious 😊.
It's been a while since I've had it, but I still feel it's "exceptional"! (In my opinion)
I had another glass with a refill.
(I actually saw some tangerine in the fridge...I asked but was told no 🥲)
Umami 3/5 Sweet and sour, characteristic of Shinsei in general
Aroma 2/5 Wasn't that much?
Miscellaneous 4/5 Maybe even drier than Earth. It has a sake-like character.
The sweet and sourness typical of Niimasa is common. I would like to examine the aroma again.
Next up is the Yonodori x American White Oak pairing🪵✨.
We added a stick of American White Oak to the Yonodori for flavor. Originally, Yonotori has the mellowness and sweetness that only a wooden vat brewing can provide, but the addition of white oak changes the direction of the aroma. The aroma is distinctly woodier than Mizunara oak, with a mellow aroma reminiscent of vanilla.
As time goes by, the aroma becomes more familiar, and a slight oaky and rounded feeling is added to the palate. The wood components blend well together, enhancing the gentle sweetness of the Yonotori, but also making the overall impression much tighter.
It was as if the sake had been aged in whiskey barrels, a nuance that gave the sake a new look.
The strong and fragrant aroma, which is different from that of Mizunara, is impressive, and it is hard to say which is better 😋.
It was a very interesting experience to compare the drinks and rediscover the individuality of each wood and the depth of Yonotori 🍶.
Next up was the "Yonotori x Mizunara" pairing experience 🪵✨.
Originally, Yonotori has a soft woody aroma derived from the wooden vat brewing process, and we added a stick of mizunara oak to flavor it further. The woody, gentle aroma unique to mizunara gradually melts into the sake over time, giving it more depth of flavor.
The first sip accentuates the balance of Yonotori's inherent sweetness and acidity, and as the second half of the sip progresses, the fragrance of mizunara gradually spreads, adding calmness and depth to the overall flavor.
The way the aroma transfers is never too strong, adding an elegant nuance like that of barrel-aged sake, and the lingering finish is very pleasant. The more you drink, the more mellow it becomes, and the more you enjoy the changes in flavor, which is another charm of this pairing.
The warmth of the wood and the quietness of the sake.
Again, it was very delicious 😋🍶.
Next up: Hinoguria x Dried Fruit
Also known as 🍋🥭🍍 Hinoglia🍍🥭🍋!
For the Hinoglia
Dried Mango🥭🥭!
Dried Pineapple🍍🍍!
Lemon🍋!
Cinnamon🫚.
Globe🫚.
mix!
The spice flavor spread out in the sweetness and matched perfectly with the rich flavor of the dried fruit✨.
It was like an adult sangria and very delicious too 😋🍶hi
I got some Shine Muscat, so I tried to match it... ♪
100% Akita Sake Komachi
Rice polishing ratio 60
Alcohol 13%.
Aroma like white wine, with the most acidity, sweetness, softness, and no bitterness.
Even when you drink it, it is like a white wine.
On the second day, the sweetness increases and it is very tasty. ❣️
On the third or fourth day, the sweetness has settled down.
And then, with the Shine Muscat, this year's grapes are small but very sweet. ❣️
So when you eat and drink it, it tastes like white wine with less sweetness.
This is delicious, but it would be better to drink it with something that can take advantage of the sweetness of the alcohol😅.
Good evening, Pon 😃.
I would like to commend you for your courage to go for the flax cat with the Shine Muscat 😌.
And I was inspired to pour the flax cat in a glass and drink it with a floating Shine Muscat on top 😆.
Good morning, Pon 😀
It's a lovely idea😇
And a gorgeous idea 😀
It takes a lot of courage to combine the expensive Shine Muscat with Flax Cat, but I have to tip my hat to Pon-chan for doing it without hesitation 😀.
Good morning, Pon 😊.
Simply flax cat, I want to drink 😋.
I want to eat a pineapple 😋.
Each one looks delicious 🥰.
I thought it would be fun to put them together again 🤣🥳.
Good morning, Pon 😊.
Same as last year, Shine Muscat.
I heard they are cheap, so I bought some
I've bought some. They look delicious 😋.
I'm sure it's delicious. I'll be sure to buy some 😊
Good morning, Pon 😃.
I see you are enjoying various pairings: ☺️
I've seen more and more drinks compared to white wine and it seems to be in sync with white grapes, but it's very deep 🤔.
The acidity of white yeast rice is crisp, so I wonder if it would go well with marinade 🤔.
Good morning, Pon!
I'm jealous that you can drink flax cat again in such a short period of time 🤤.
It's delicious 😋.
I love the idea of pairing fruit with a drink 🤗.
Pon.
Good morning...
You are indeed an alamasanist🤩.
It is one of the drinks I would like to try as I have only imagined the taste! This year's Shine Muscat is indeed small but the price has come down and it's easier to buy 🥰.
Good morning, Pon 😃.
Recently, I've seen a lot of TV shows about pairing sweets and other sweet foods.
I haven't been able to try it because I tend to combine it with snacks and side dishes at dinner to kill my liver 😅.
Hi Hiro 🐦.
Flax cat with muscat in a wine glass! That's wonderful ✨I wish I could have 😻
I think the reason why it's not sweet enough is because of the cheapness of combining muscat and white wine-like liquor 🤣Reflecting 🫡.
Hi Yasbaye 🐦.
Muscat, I think I could do it without hesitation because every year 🍇 farmers send me 😁It's not easy to buy them at home 🤭I opened the refrigerator and 🐱 was there, so I thought, "This is it! I had to give it a try 😊.
Hi Takashi 🐦 I had the same thought.
I had the same thought 😊I just got lucky and decided to give it a try 😏This year the grains were smaller but still tasty and sweet ❣️ Maybe one on each side would have been better!
Hi, Hanapin 🐦.
I'm so jealous of how many times you've bought ‼️ 😻
My mother's childhood friend is a 🍇farmer, so she probably sends you good stuff 😊Thanks a lot 🙏.
Hi Aladdin 🐦.
I'm sorry to say that I was a bit cheap 💦 After eating muscat, the less sweet flax cat is really like wine 😳.
I like the marinade! It seems to enhance the sweetness😻
Hi ma-ki-🐦.
Oh, by the way, I was drinking it a while ago 😆 It's really delicious 😆 I can drink it every day at ❣️ 😆.
I've wondered what to pair it with before 🤔It's a difficult pairing 💦.
Hi Koizo 🐦.
I tried pairing on the spur of the moment, but it was difficult 💦 I'll keep trying 😁.
I didn't see the price drop 😳I had an image that it was expensive 😂.
Good evening, soumacho 🦉.
I usually crush my liver quota (lol) with dinner too, but I'll hold off until after dinner 😂 If you're thinking of pairing with dessert after dinner, that patience alone is already amazing 😆👍.

We were told that "Niimasa" was available, so we ordered it immediately.
The richness of the acidity and aroma, and the refreshing sweetness.
I'm impressed by the sensations I haven't had in a long time 😆😆😆.

The balance of acidity and umami is exquisite, as is typical of Shinmasa.
And the pleasant astringency is wonderful.
It's not as peculiar as I thought it would be, and it doesn't have a low-polished feel to it either 🍶.
Nirvana Turtle is awesome 🍶Thank you so much for the food m(_ _)m
