(Left photo) Gentle and refreshing on the palate, but the spreading gorgeousness, sweetness in the mid-palate, and umami in the back palate are all just right. Challenging as rainfall! It is rare to find a sake that sharpens the senses to such a degree. 4.75

(Right photo) For a sake like Amefall, which is known for having a clear concept for each sake, I am not sure what kind of concept it is. First, there is a rice-like umami, followed by a slightly strong tropical fruit-like acidity, with a little lactic acidity (typical of mizu-hashiroshi) coming later... The sweetness is quite low, and the acidity disappears in the aftertaste, leaving only the umami typical of mellow, dry sake. Hmmm... I wonder if it's a bit raw... 3.25

First Jyushiyo here. Very mild aroma. In contrast, the taste has a pineapple-like mouthfeel with a hint of hana-hyo-yaki, with a good balance of sweet and sour flavors. The umami almost disappears with the sweetness and acidity before it appears. Beautifully balanced, but not too much so. I like Shinshu Kamerei better if it's from the same family. Maybe it's not good to start with Ginsen. If I were to give it an absolute rating, I would give it 5.00, 4.75

Certainly dry for a rainfall so far. Less sweetness, calm taste. The aroma is mellow, banana and melon type, but the taste is not so heavy and can be enjoyed with a meal. 4.50

The rice polishing ratio makes you think it might be a little more refreshing, but it expresses a beautiful sweetness while having a strong core. The balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity in the aftertaste is impressive. A very beautiful sake with a good balance of all flavors. 5.00

It is not so much malic acid as pleasant sweet acidity, just like red apple juice. As the temperature rises, the umami is also well developed, but the strong, pleasant acidity is quickly snapped off. I got the impression that I was shown a new type of malic acid sake. 4.75

Excellent as a normal sake, but not cool. It doesn't have the acidity and crispness of a summer sake, and you can feel the sweetness. There is a slight lightness in the aftertaste, but I think it depends on the change in temperature, and in the end, I don't think it is that different from a regular Kido Junmai Daiginjo. 4.50

Not too much acidity like a sour beer, but sweet and tasty like sake! This is a sake with 8% alcohol content and 90% rice polishing ratio? Perhaps the color of the liquid and the label are pulling my attention, but it tastes sweet and sour, like biting into a ripe white peach! This is the first taste I have ever encountered in a sake, and I was surprised to find it to be just as it says on the label! 5.00

Refreshing and fruity! A fresh and aromatic sake that you would not expect to find in a hi-ire. I see what you mean, H is Honochi's direct pumping. The tanginess and the tingling sensation that lingers in the throat is just too much! 5.00

The first touch is naturally gaseous. Then acidity, bitterness, a little sweetness, and a nice finish that quickly disappears as the gasiness fades away. The overall taste is like a grapefruit sour, although the umami has a sake-like quality. Dangerous to drink like a sour! 4.50

Floral but mellow aroma with a strong umami. Sweet and delicious as is typical of Shinshu Kamerei, but with a rich Yamadanishiki-like flavor that is distinctly different from other sake rice from Nagano. It is expressed without sacrificing any of the Shinshu Kamerei character. How light the aftertaste is! We would love to have a bottle at our house next year! 4.75 But what a luxurious day!

The acidity that I have felt in Shinmasa so far is quite restrained, giving the impression of beautiful sweetness. + Too clean to be considered a locally brewed sake, too good to be enjoyed alone as a food sake. (No, it can't be called a locally brewed sake with a rice polishing ratio of 30%, can it? However, I never thought I would be able to drink Sato Ubei at a time like this! 4.75

(Right photo) The yoghurt-like acidity typical of mizu-hashiroshi precedes the taste, and it is not as floral as expected for Aizan. It has more umami than Shunyo, and the aftertaste is also more typical of sake, but it is still a bit lacking for Aizan. I guess Amefall is basically a refreshing fruity type of sake. 4.25

(Left photo) Nigori sake with a fresh, muscat-like acidity. The mild sweetness that remains from start to finish enhances the lingering acidity that gradually disappears after the rather strong sourness at the entrance. A truly refreshing yet satisfying sake, good to drink during this hot season! Highly recommended! 4.75

(Left photo) Beautiful, gentle, fruity aroma and gentle taste, just like a high quality sake. Beautiful sweetness, and a smooth taste. As the temperature rises, a firm umami flavor also comes from the depths. But when I looked at the price, my eyeballs jumped out of my head! (Thank you for trying it at a reasonable price) 4.00

(Right photo) Sweet and juicy, but with Omachi-like richness and bitterness. Therefore, the pineapple flavor is less pronounced than Yamadanishiki. I personally rate it lower than Yamadanishiki because I don't like the Omachi-like feeling, but it still has no heaviness at all! The aftertaste is wonderful, with the bitterness giving it a sharp edge. 4.50

Well, kooooo! It has a melon and a pineapple taste! This is sooooooooooooooooooo good! The sweetness is strong and the alcohol content is only 13%, so it's easy to drink and sip! Unfortunately, the glass wasn't even half full, but I'm happy! Oh, I finished it while I was typing this 💦😂.

Good evening, Mr. Satsyuu! Shimada Uhei-san is the parent company of Ameuri, but now they also sell other kinds of sake as well! I was surprised to see that 🙄. That's what surprised me😊.

I finished a little early, so I went to Shimada Uhei Shoten. (All you can drink 1) This place offers 60 minutes of all-you-can-drink sake, which changes daily! I've been wanting to go there for a while, and finally I was able to stop by! The first drink was a Niimasa. I can only drink one glass of Shinmasa, but it's a miracle that I can. ☺️☺️ Yay! Well, well, well, the first sip, yummmmmm! Yummmmeeee! Amazing, Niimasa-san! Kuu😙I think this is the kind of sake that even people who don't like sake will say, oh, this is delicious. It's the best 😋.

Hi Jay & Nobby! I had never seen it before either 🫢I know it was an Akita exclusive 🫢I know it's hard to find since it's Shinmasa, but the owner said he got it from a friend of his 🧐I see what you mean.
