I couldn't buy Shinsei in Akita, but when I came back to Nagano, I was informed that Shinsei was available today, so I went to the store immediately.
My refrigerator was moistened again... ♡.

At Torinoichi in Yokote City, Akita Prefecture, during a trip back home.
It was a great night with delicious yakitori and snacks.
If I didn't have to drive the next day, I would have liked to go to all the colors.

Maybe a little sweeter than what I had before.
Kido is cheap and has no hassles, which is a big help.

Jikon特別純米 生

I've had it in the store, but this is the first time I've purchased it.
As expected of Jikin.
It has a strong taste of rice, yet it is easy to drink without any unpleasant taste or habit.
It is unquestionably delicious.

翠玉純米吟醸 山田錦

This is a local sake from Yuzawa.
I had never had it before, but there was a special sales store in Nagano, so I went to check it out.
I bought Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo and Ryoseki Hatsushibori-Nama-shu, the only two sakes with a slightly spicy label, because the others had a sweet label.
This one is nice!
I didn't notice much of an aroma before drinking it, but when I drank it, it was delicious, with a floral and sweet aroma that wasn't too strong, and a slight spiciness at the end of the bottle.
I get tired of overly strong ginjo aroma, but this one is easy to drink with no unpleasant taste at all.

Sweet, good.
With horse mackerel sashimi.
It didn't go well with the snacks, but the sake itself is very good.
However, the freshly caught horse mackerel, which was perfectly drained of blood, was so delicious that it took away my impression of it... I may have wasted the sake.

The #7 yeast I got was so good that I ended up buying the #6 yeast as well.
I think this one has more sweetness and umami. I think this one is better for drinking as a food sake. It seems to go with everything.
If you want to drink it alone, I think the No. 7 yeast would be better.
Both are delicious, but I prefer No. 7.

Nama sake with No.7 yeast
Slightly effervescent.
Refreshing, light and easy to drink.
I quite like it, but I think I might drink too much...

It has quite a bit of gassiness.
It is different from the sake I usually like to drink, but I like it this way.
It settles down after a day, but if you want to taste the characteristics, it is better to drink it freshly opened.

Gin no Iroha, that's the first sake rice I've ever had.
Immediately after opening the bottle, the melon-like aroma gave me an image of youth.
I was a bit wary for a moment because I get tired of drinking sake with a strong ginjo aroma, but this one was easy to drink thanks to its crispness, which is typical of Kenkunichi.
I also like the label.

First sogape.
When I opened the package, it was clean, with a bitter aftertaste.
I thought it would be like this, but soon the taste changed and a fluffy sweetness appeared.
Even I, an insensitive person, could tell, so I guess it must be quite fast...
I'm looking forward to seeing the taste change the day after opening the bottle, but I'm not sure if I should finish it today... I'm torn!

Of course it tastes great mixed in, but the best part is the top! I was pretty drunk when I drank it so this is all I can remember what I thought of it lol.

It is delicious!
The Kinmon-nishiki we drank on New Year's Day was gorgeous and delicious, but today's wine is sweet and umami. However, the impression is of a clear and gentle taste. When it comes back to room temperature, a nice bitterness also comes out. I like it.

Sweet and heavy. Banana? Peach? I thought the aroma was a bit off my taste buds, but the next day I drank it and the aroma calmed down and it became easier to drink.

It has a gorgeous aroma, a moderate sweetness, and a fair amount of bitterness. It is delicious, but it was a shame that I drank it after the Ecru...

Although it is labeled "super dry," it is not too dry and is easy to drink.
It is not too dry and easy to drink. The umami flavor can be felt quite well, so although it is dry, it may not be a food sake. This is my personal impression.

It is pleasantly sweet and has a clean aftertaste.
The "schwarziness" is due to the fact that I'm drunk? It has a slight effervescence. It is gentle.
I like it a lot.
Japanese>English
yk
It had not been available for a long time.
It seemed to have a stronger schwarziness than when I drank it before.
As the label says, I probably like it better when I let it sit for a couple of years to settle down, but of course I can't resist it.
