Shin IWA" is made by Shiraiwa (Tateyama, Toyama Prefecture), the brewery of Richard Jofrowa, the former chief brewer of the French luxury champagne "Dom Perignon". Kengo Kuma introduced Richard Jofrowa to the Masuda Sake Brewery, and the collaboration was realized. The IWA bottle was designed by Marc Newson: it resembles the shape of a Burgundy wine rather than a traditional sake bottle. The neck of the bottle also gives a slightly different impression. The etiquettes were a collaboration between calligrapher Mariko Kinoshita and art director Hideki Nakajima.

A special limited release of Koshi's highest junmai daiginjo with alcohol reduced to 13%. A special gem with a low alcohol content and a light, yet robust and thick flavor. A junmai daiginjo-shu with a gorgeous aroma and a good bitter flavor that wraps around the palate, with a refreshing finish. Agreed on the impression that the sake is like a gentle light, reminiscent of a beautiful spring day. ☺️

The rice, which requires delicate handling, is treated with the same care as in the sake competition and fermented at an ultra-low temperature. The piquancy characteristic of unfiltered unpasteurized sake was a little weak, but this may have been due to the timing of opening the bottle. A gorgeous aroma reminiscent of pineapple. Light and refreshing, with a good sharpness.

Smooth! Beautiful bottle! It has a refreshing ginjo aroma, a rough-running, bouncy mouthfeel, and a fresh finish with a gassy feel. We had it served at our request for a fresh, piquant one! The name "Ichidrop Senzan" is derived from the Zen phrase "一雨潤千山", which means "one rainfall, one thousand mountains". It is said that the name "ICHIDARUSHI SENZAN" comes from a Zen phrase "一雨潤千山", which means "one drop of rain can enrich many mountains and people". It is said that the exquisite bitterness of the sake makes it a good match with meals, but I have not mastered it yet, so I did not understand it. A limited-quantity product brewed with Association 1401 yeast from "Comet" rice suitable for sake brewing produced in Hokkaido, and bottled raw "Arahashiri" only.

It was a limited brew and not for sale! It is sweet, but as one would expect from a Daiginjo with 35% rice polishing ratio! Light and light!

Purchased after being told to be careful when opening the bottle as it is fire-extinguished but fizzy. The subtle sweetness reminds me of the taste of rice! The taste is not blurred even when combined with soy sauce, which is essential for sashimi, making it a perfect sake for a meal.

Junmai Ginjo Shiboritate from Kusumi Shuzo, which revived the phantom sake rice "Kame no O". It is characterized by a refreshing acidity and a clean throat. The sweetness is not exaggerated and goes well with both Western and Japanese food.
