The gas pressure at the time of shipment was slightly lower than usual to reflect on the previous lot, which was too active, resulting in a slightly sweeter taste than usual. The bottle was opened with care, and the instructions said to drink it as soon as possible. We opened the bottle assuming it would be quite difficult to open. It opened immediately and did not spill. So far, Kuheiji is the hardest to open.
It smells like sweet and sour yogurt and lemon.
The carbonation is so strong that you can hear it, sourness like lemon juice, orange, apple, grapefruit, wooden barrels, saliva comes out on its own, delicious sourness. No bitterness. Orangina? I don't feel like I'm drinking sake after drinking this. It's a sake called Shinmasa. It is carbonated to the level of cola, but it is a carbonated bomb, like a stronger pre-lot. The food is good with it. It's the best.
