This sake bears the name of the brewery Tenryohai Sake Brewery, whose new president is making excellent sake, whether or not it is safe to say that he is a newcomer to Sado Island.
It is slightly carbonated and fruity. It is slightly carbonated and fruity, with a strong umami flavor. There is no bitterness or other tastes. It is very beautiful and has a wonderful finish. I am here. I never thought it could be this good. The raw sake is available only at the store where the brewery is located, and I am very lucky to be able to buy it. It is a hall of fame.
It is 16%, but it is juice. You can drink it drunkenly. And because it is so beautiful, it can also be used as a food sake. It's a great balance!
I participated in the Echigo Kenshin SAKE Festival on Saturday. The weather was ☀️.

As promised by Jay & Nobby, Masayo is adored in the sake brewery world as Masayo-san, not Garakudai (Utashiro)! I told the female staff, but she didn't get the message 😭.

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃.
Now that I think about it, I think it's hard to tell if the staff members are also helpers or warehouse owners. There seemed to be a lot of part time workers 😅.
I'll ask them next year 😄.
Purchased at Kuramae store on Sado Island
The first day evening, the shopkeeper was absent and could not enter, and revisited the next day.
I wanted to try Gagakuyo.
After reading the popup, I was curious about this Tenryo Sake, so I tasted it!
It has a chiri-chiri-ness of nama-shu, a soft acidity like a whey-like taste.
Calm umami, perfect for my taste 👌👌.
First sake in a while!
Tomorrow, I'll drink my first camp 🏕️, so I went to the liquor store 🚗.
The fluorescent yellow Noto caught my eye and I bought it. It's my favorite type of sake 😍I can drink it in gulps! I drank half of it right away 😋Thank you! Tenryohaii Shuzo ‼️Tsuruno Sake Brewery to support ‼️
Ponshukan Nagaoka Station Store Drinking Grui 12 drinks.
Used 2 coins.
The 3rd last month. I hesitated because the number had changed, but I chose it because it was a daiginjo.
Please check Misogihagi's page for some of the numbers that have jumped. 15 cups and that's it.
After staying one night in Nagaoka City, we went to Niigata City next.
Sake tasting at Ponshukan in Niigata Station.
The first cup was a Tenryo Saihei sake.
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol content 15
Wow, this is dry 😲.
It retains the umami of the rice and of course has a nice sharpness.
Garakudai, made by the same brewery, is also light but more modern. Tenryohai follows the traditional light and dry taste of Niigata sake.
I think it was the spiciest sake I drank on this trip.
Moderate aroma, yet gorgeous.
Sweetness and a slight sourness on the palate with a light gassy feeling. The aftertaste is light and slightly pungent.
Japanliness: Normal
Acidity: Low
Alcohol 15%.
Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Light 12.5° alcohol
Recommended by a female shopkeeper in a certain town.
It goes well with fish! She said it would go well with fish!
Well, I'm looking forward to it tomorrow.
Moderate floral (sweetness and acidity) followed by bitterness.
I wish the bitterness would blend in a bit more.
I expect the same from the owner and this sake! (sorry to be so gruff... 🍶)
