Lightly cloudy with a strong aroma. It is sweet, but the acidity prevails over the sweetness. The aftertaste is short and fades away quickly, leaving behind a pleasantly astringent and umami flavor. It fits the image of a fireworks display.
It is a strange feeling that I have never had before. It is like a lemon squash, like a spodori...but Tenmei is still very delicious 🤤.
At Tsuruga, Aizu.
Fukushima sake, you have to drink it😊.

At Yamazaki Sake Shop, which has a great selection of Tenmei.
We compared the Akebono Shuzo Tenmei!
We chose the fourth (Shigo) and the fifth (Gogo) out of the three available from the Nakadori Ichi-go.
The fourth is Omachi from Akaiwa in Okayama and Yamada Nishiki from Aizu.
Slight oriki,
The aroma is of bananas,
The texture is fine and mellow,
The soft sweetness and acidity are very smooth and round in the mouth,
The freshness of the umami on top of the freshness of the sake.
The light sourness is refreshing and refreshing,
The light sourness is refreshing and crisp,
It is delicious!

You can taste the umami slowly,

Good morning, Kinekomama 😃Drinking Tenmei with Aizu lacquered cups is nice 😍‼️ I thought those cups were cute and wondered if I should buy them but didn't 😭
Mr. Manachie! As expected, you know very well, the glass is made of Aizu lacquer! It's so cute, isn't it? My wife's parents from Aizu gave this to me as a wedding present, and I treasure it very much! It's my favorite because it feels so good in the mouth!

I had a long weekend off, so I went on a trip to Aizu 😊.
After arriving in Aizuwakamatsu, we visited Watanabe Sota Shoten in front of the station and had a quick drink at Hairan Sho, which we had reserved 🍶.
Tenmei's Tokyo Seibai 🍚.
This sake is made from Kitakata-grown Yamadanishiki rice that has been polished by a professional rice-polisher in Tokyo so that it does not need polishing.
The initial aroma is of slightly cooked rice.
In the mouth, it is a clear sake that is hard to believe it is 87%.
It has a subtle sweetness and umami, with a slight acidity that finishes off the taste.
It is a dry sake with a moderate sweetness, perfect for a mealtime drink.
It was delicious 🍶✨️
The first photo is of the master, Kazu.
He was a very fun master with a great spirit of service 😊.
The third picture is Watanabe Sota Shoten. I was going to ask to be included in Sota's back hump group that Muro-san is in, but I decided not to since I am a first-time customer 😌.
Good evening, Mr. Matsuchiyo 🥹.
Sota Shoten must have been good 🥹.
(There is no hanpukai in the back 🤫)
Shinmasa-san is a bit scarce these days 🥲.
Yes, I know 😁👍Do you know what the hiragana means? It's Aizu dialect ☺️
Good evening Mr. Muro 🍶.
It was spectacular with all the sake from Fukushima except for the fridge near the entrance 😆.
Shinsei gathers in the city💴😅.
I had to look up "Hai Ransho"....
It meant "please come in" 😊.
Next is Tenmei Tamboshibori Junmai Daiginjo.
At 16% alcohol by volume, it has a slightly firm, sweet-tasting mouthfeel.
The taste is as good as the description says, a mix of sharpness and mellowness.
The sweetness comes first because it is after the clear dryness of Ten Frog.
It was delicious. 🎉
A little bit of luxury on a regular night.
This is a bottle that perfectly fits the concept of "a little richness. The fresh and pleasant mouthfeel with a fresh and comfortable mouthfeel. The gentle fruity aroma of lychee and muscat fruits wafts softly in the air, and the elegant sweetness of the Yamadanishiki malted rice and the soft acidity of the Yume-no-Kou combine exquisitely.
The freshness and gassiness of CSW's limited-edition, directly pumped, raw sake bursts on the tongue, giving a very fresh impression from the first sip.
It is in the price range for everyday use, but the taste is truly "a little bit better.
It is a bottle with such a presence that it enriches your regular evening drinks.
Golden Tenmei" is a bottle that makes you think it is special after all.
From the moment you take a sip, the clear sweetness and soft acidity spread out as if a light is shining through.
The taste is not heavy, but has depth and gently expands. The lingering aftertaste is very beautiful, and the pleasant feeling continues for a while after drinking.
This sake, made with 37% polished "Yume-no-Ko" from Aizu Sakashita and brewed with all of the brewery's technology, seems to embody Tenmei's theme of "a sake that goes well with meals.
Each element is not too showy, yet there is a core, and all the flavors are in gentle harmony.
The smoothness of the koji, carefully made using the "Nakabako method," is evident in the gentle mouthfeel, and the attention to detail is evident.
This sake is not only "just delicious," but also gentle and refined enough to "fit in at the dining table and remain in one's memory.
It is no wonder that this sake has gone from a seasonal product to a standard item.
I think this is the culmination of Tenmei's uniqueness.
It was one of the most delicious cup liquors I have ever had. While it has a mild fruity taste, it is a very tasty sake without the alcohol zing that is often associated with cup liquors.
