When you take a sip, the strong acidity tightens the mouth,
Although it is a nigori sake, it is not fruity and is very clear.
The long and beautiful acidic aftertaste is cut off in the next moment. It is delicious!
An overwhelming balance of sweet and sour.
The fine acidity makes it sweet but not at all sticky.
It tastes like the Calpis soda that everyone knows, refined to the extreme.
Asahi Sake Brewery's treasure, "Senshin".
The lack of impurities is extraordinary, as the "Takananishiki" is polished to 28%.
The attack has a slight yeast-derived aroma, or rather, the breath of fermentation.
From there, it quickly shifts to a watery texture. The difference between the two is amazing.
The ultimate highlight is the hint of aroma.
In the transparency, a fresh fruitiness like lychee appears clearly, and it finishes brightly.
This is a masterpiece that gives a sense of modernity that comes from the pursuit of "light and dry".
This is one of the hardest and driest bottles in the Colors series.
Along with the fresh gasiness of direct pumping, the sharp acidity characteristic of Shinsei jumps in.
My personal feeling is that it has a delicious ink-like minerality.
The structure of the wine, which does not rely on sweetness, but only on the backbone of acidity and umami, is superb.
It is also good for cutting the oil from a fatty meal.
When poured into a boar's mouth, the energetic bubbles pop.
The aroma is refreshing, almost apple-like.
It is light on the palate and low in alcohol.
You can drink it just like a juice.
The sweet and sour taste refreshed me to the max!
In the mouth, there is zero resistance.
It feels like "polished water" in the mouth.
From there, the sweetness and umami of the rice spreads gently,
The final taste is beautiful and lingering.
This sense of clarity and satisfaction is reminiscent of "Jyushiyo" in its perfection.
It is best when poured with sashimi.
It is surprisingly close to "water" in touch, although one would expect it to be a sweet-amami type that even seems to thicken.
It is extremely light at first, but in the middle part of the bottle, the mild umami of rice is asserted, and the sharpness of the latter half completely resets the taste.
This sense of balance between "lightness" and "umami" is divine.
It is unquestionably delicious. As expected of Jyushiyo.
Elegant pineapple. Moderate acidity.
When you roll it around in your mouth, you can also feel the richness of rice like Jikin.
I finally found it after not being able to find it since my senior at work told me about CEL24.Hana-yoso and this sake as a pineapple-like sake.
I am glad I could buy it! It is delicious!
Thanks to my wife who prepared mushrooms as garnish.

Sentori's "Akatombo", from the moment it is poured into the glass, the **"ginjo aroma "** rises in a flurry at first. The aroma is elegant and gorgeous, reminiscent of fine white grapes or pears. It is clean and elegant, and raises expectations even before you drink it.
Then, when you take a sip, what spreads on your tongue is a **"refreshing calpiciness "** that is typical of Senkou. It is not just sweet and sour, but pure like a freshly squeezed lactic acid bacteria drink, with a cool and refreshing texture. This "sweetness" and "acidity" refreshes the palate as lightly as the clear autumn air.
The true essence of this sake is its "sharpness of the aftertaste. As you can see, the acidity is strong and sharp. It is as sharp as a polished sword. This strong acidity sweeps away the sweetness that tends to linger in the mouth, leaving only a "clean "** aftertaste.
(If you don't mind my saying so.) As a snack, it would be great with autumn fish or mushroom dishes!
It's a perfect "dessert to drink". It is delicious!

Akabu's "Monster", a fresh surprise that just pops in your mouth!
The first thing you notice from the moment it is poured into your glass is its lush aroma. While the aroma is reminiscent of fine fruit, when you take a sip, the first thing that tickles your tongue is the delicate slight bubbling (shwashiness) like that of ramune, which was also felt by our customers. This slight carbonation brings a light and joyful feeling, just like a summer festival night!
Then, what follows is a sweet and sour, yet creamy "lactic acid beverage" nuance, reminiscent of Calpis. It is not only sweet, but also has a refreshing sourness that makes it squeaky clean, so there is no dullness at all. This balance is what makes this sake "easy to drink" and "addictive.
The fruity nature is not merely fruity, but rather juicy and elegantly sweet, like white peaches or muscats. The freshness, as if you just bit into a fresh fruit, combined with the cool acidity, seems to dance on your tongue.
The aroma is expected to have a muscat flavor. In the mouth, it has the umami of rice typical of Hououmida. It cuts through quickly. If you drink it with rice, it turns into a sharp sake with a hint of sourness.
Grape acidity. There is also a hint of honeyiness. It has a strong sweetness, probably because it has been sitting for a few months since I bought it. It's good!
After drinking a lot of things, Viridian is very easy to drink because it has a mild mouthfeel and cuts through with a strong acidity at the end. A sense of relief, like returning to one's parents' home.
