Timeline
ガルスBlending of flavors
For the record, as my memory is a little fuzzy. At the second party of a year-end party, I was allowed to open a bottle of 6-year-old Shinmasa specially at the bar where I am a regular customer.
Naturally, I could feel the taste of Shinsei, but it still had a freshness that made me feel no sense of time, and from there, I could feel a smooth transition of taste like a fusion of flavors that further united the whole. The best.
★★★★★ ガルスbe shrouded in cedar
A faint scent of wood. From the neutral mouthfeel, minerality and acidity are felt, and from there, the aroma of cedar fills the air. It finishes with a lingering aftertaste of that aroma.
This is a wine with a refreshing aroma that can be fully appreciated.
★★★★ ガルス🍎🌾
The aroma is reminiscent of sweet and sour apple. The sharp mouthfeel gives a steamed rice-like aroma with woody nuances, and it is crisp and clean while maintaining a sense of transparency.
A sake whose aroma can be enjoyed. Refreshing and easy to drink.
★★★★ ガルスConcentrated alcohol
A rare alcoholic beverage with 30% alcohol content created with new technology.
Aroma reminiscent of sourness and alcohol. The rich mouthfeel is followed by a spicy and sour taste, and then a mildly spicy taste that finishes with a sharp taste.
Although the high alcohol content makes it spicy, this delicious sake has a lingering aftertaste.
★★★★ ガルスEnjoy sour taste
Compare special junmai and junmai ginjo.
Hatsu Tenbi. The aroma is reminiscent of apple-like sourness. From a clean mouthfeel, it has a sour, bitter, and tangy taste, and finishes with a lingering bitter and sour aftertaste.
There is no difference except that the Junmai Ginjo has a slightly clearer outline.
An interesting sake with mild bitterness and acidity.
★★★★ ガルスVintage Comparison
We had the opportunity to compare the different vintages of Ecru.
We started with the newer 2022. A clean mouthfeel, strong acidity, and sweetness. Then a complex fruit-like flavor that finishes with a lingering sweetness.
Next is 2018, with a mellow mouthfeel, followed by sweet and sour tastes that come together and converge seamlessly with the fruitiness of the flavors.
When fresh, each flavor seems to stand on its own, but as time goes by, they seem to blend together to create a sense of unity. It is difficult to say which is better, and both are delicious.
★★★★★ ガルスfor recording
While retaining the acidity and aroma characteristic of Shinsei, it was firm and complex in flavor among Shinsei.
★★★★ ガルスfor recording
Etiquette is beautiful.
The palate has a strong impression of silky mellowness like Brahma. Overall, the taste has a sense of transparency.
★★★★ ガルスfor recording
After the first meeting, I went to a sake bar by myself. There were no other customers, so I went to have a chat with the proprietress.
I also bought a sake go-around badge for the October 1 Sake Day event.
The sake has a sweetness that is typical of Ozeyuki, as well as a clear taste.
The taste of Ozeyuki is stable and satisfying.
★★★★ ガルスfor recording
I drank four shots that day and this was my last drink and I have no proper memory of it.
My impression is that it was delicious with sweetness and clarity.
At the entrance with the owner, who is full of love for Shinsei. ガルスfirm and sweet
The aroma is subdued. In the mouth, there is a mellow attack derived from nigori, and a white peach-like sweetness fills the mouth along with a sense of freshness. In the latter half, the sweetness is accompanied by a gradual sharpness.
In this hot season, I got the impression that it was a little too sweet for me. In winter, this sake would certainly be delicious. Blindly, there seems to be no way to tell that this is 90% polished rice.
I was surprised to encounter it again on the same day after having had another Sono Kangiku for the first time at a restaurant before coming here.

I have the strong impression that it is very mellow. You can feel it in the attack and texture. The second half was rather simple and gentle sweetness.
I could feel the name "gloss".
★★★★ ガルスfor recording
Shinsei Ecru after a long time. Stable taste. Sweet and sour taste with a hint of wood. I was able to find a store that always carries Shinsei. ガルスfor recording
The taste was fresh and sharp, typical of Kuroryu.
It has been a long time since I have had a Kuroryu. I found a Fukui limited edition sake.
