New Politics Viridian 2020 ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Like: ★★★★★ Cosiness: ★★★★☆ Shinsei Colors 4 kinds drinking comparison This is the most pleasantly sour of the four, and frankly the one I felt was the best. After all, the top model was the best. The rice polishing ratio has been changed this year, and even though the price has dropped, I felt it was working in the right direction. If you see it in a liquor store, I️ recommend you to get it immediately.

Shinsei Cosmos 2020 ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Likeability: ★★★★☆ Cosmo: ★★★★☆ Shinsei Colors 4 kinds drinking comparison Among the 4 kinds of Colors, Cosmos is the only one left without popularity. I can't explain exactly what was so bad about it. I can't explain it clearly, but it was unanimously unpopular. Later, I drank it by myself, but at that time, I didn't feel so uncomfortable and I could enjoy it. Well, it's Shinsei, so it's not too bad to drink, and everything tastes good.

Shinsei LAPIS 2020 ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Likeability: ★★★★☆ Cosiness: ★★★★☆ Shinsei Colors 4 kinds drinking comparison I couldn't clearly explain the difference between this and Cosmos. Compared to the Ecru and Viridian, the bitterness was felt though it was slight. I've seen a lot of Lapidus fans, but I'd like to know what makes it different from the others.

Shinsei Ecru 2020 ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Like: ★★★★★ Cospa: ★★★★☆ Shinsei Colors 4 kinds drinking comparison I've always been a big fan of Ecru, but compared to the other 3, I️ found it to be not only not inferior at all, but the sweetest & most delicious without bitterness. The price increase this year is a pain, but I think it is still one of the best in terms of cost. It's not only the best, but it's also the most delicious. If you see it, make sure to get it right away 👮♂️🚓.

Shinsei No.6 R-type 2020 ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Degree of liking: ★★★★★ Cospa: ★★★★☆ I've been slacking on posting. I've been drinking. It's a swift drink with no messy taste. I could taste the sweetness even when it was chilled. Shinsei is leading the way in the era of low-alcohol undiluted sake.

Shinsei Flax Cat 2020 Lot No. 02 ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Preference: ★★★★★ Price: ★★★★☆ Apple vinegar, freshly baked bread and citrus aromas. The green astringent taste from the wooden vat fuses with a savory bitterness like citrus peel to tighten the taste. It is expected to be stored for a long time. The above is the description of the taste of Lot No. 02. I don't know how you can write a description that spans 100 words for each lot😓 Mmmmmmmm! I wonder if there's ever a time when you just want to get it over with in one word. As you enthusiasts know, this lot was shipped in 2021.04, so I was able to purchase it at the price before the price increase. Since this month's shipment, the price has gone up by about 150 yen. Shinsei has established its brand, so in extreme cases, it will continue to sell even if the price doubles. Even so, the price increase of Ecru is painful😭. (Was it ever too cheap?) If I could buy Cosmos for 500 yen more, I'd probably go for that one 😅 lol

Minshuku Toono Doburoku: water-based sake with yeast added ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Degree of liking: ★★★★★ Cospa: ★★☆☆☆ It wasn't that impressive compared to the nascent, non-additive yeast and water mash, but Tono doburoku is just too good, too good for anything else. (...Jumangoku Manju) A 500ml bottle can be emptied by one person in one night. That's how good it is. If it is sold again, I will buy it and keep it in stock.

Kouei Kiku Sunburst ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Like: ★★★★★ Cosiness: ★★★★★ Of the many sakés I drank last year. One of the best 5 honourable chrysanthemum Sunburst,. I was able to drink it again this year ☀️. It is not a strong acid, but a gentle acid. It's not a strong acid, but a gentle acid. I like it even if it is more unique. The "Shinsei feeling" that I felt last year is the best in Gekko🚩 Speaking of SUN, Hoshino Gen got married... I'm in love with acid and going into (out of) my dream.

Kouei Chrysanthemum White Moon ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Degree of liking: ★★★★☆ Cosiness: ★★★★☆ You can't go wrong with anything, you drink too much of anything. Kouei Chrysanthemum. Recently, I was looking at Twitter and was surprised to see Kouyoungiku's antics. It's still as good as ever. I drank Hakugetsu for the first time, but it may have less personality in the Kouei-Kiku series. Sad to think it'll be off for a while once the different Sunokure sake rice is released (probably) later this month 😢.

New Politics Cosmos 2019 ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Preference: ★★★★☆ Price: ★★☆☆☆ This is the first time I've had a Shinsei at home since the end of the year. I've had some good luck, so I opened a bottle. When I opened the bottle, I thought it might not be my favorite, but when it became a little lukewarm, it was still delicious. The Colors series is really a must have. How much can you drink of 2020? I️ want to capture Ash and Earth, necessarily.

Odeyaka Junmai Ginjo ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Degree of liking:★☆☆☆☆ Cospa:★★☆☆☆ It's another brand of the brewer of Niidashi Zensyu, "Yasumi". The label is fashionable. Sake freaks like to explore new brands that they like, not just their favorite ones. I bought this sake because it is characterized by acidity and has a moderate aroma. I chilled it and took a sip. Hmmm.... It's hard to describe the taste. I left it for a while and took a sip when it became lukewarm. Ah, a little better. I've heard that it's also good warmed up, so I'm going to enjoy it carefully. Postscript. After letting it sit for a bit, it started to feel alcoholic. I've revised the rating downward to 2. Downward revision to 1

Kouryugiku SNOW CRESCENT ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** Degree of liking: ★★★★★ Cosiness: ★★★★★ It's been a while since I've been here, Kouei Kiku. It was featured in dancyu2021, and it's no exaggeration to say that it's one of the most promising breweries right now. Sunokure was released in December last year. Luckily I could still buy some! It has a flax cat-like acidity, but it's sharp and not boring to drink. This is good. Really good. I liked the acid burst, but this one is also a strike. Cospa is also good. Anastasia Green" will be released next week. Next week "Anastasia Green" will be released, and "Dusk Orange" will be released at the end of next month. I'm hoping to get them all this year.
