A repeat of the Tenbi I drank in the real Yamaguchi: ‼︎
It's called Amami in spring, so it's refreshing, fruity ✨and a bit schwarzy.
Be careful when you open it!
This week we have seasonal sake!
So, we are moving up the order and having spring sakes!
Today's sake is Tenbi by Choshu Shuzo!
This time it's Momoten!
I was looking forward to drinking it!
Let's start with the first sip!
The first day
First, the aroma. I don't feel much aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel the sweetness and chili.
In the middle, the fruity aroma with a bitterness that gradually fades away is blissful.
The lingering aftertaste is a little salty and chili, and it is delicious!
When it is nigori, the taste is a little thicker, but the fresh sweetness is also good!
The bitter and salty taste is stronger than the supernatant.
It also has a gaseous taste, but milder than the supernatant.
Day 2
The bitterness has become weaker and the sweetness is more pronounced.
Still, the dry gaseous taste refreshes the palate, so it is not too sweet and tastes great today!
When nigori is used, the sweetness is mild again today. I still have the impression that the bitterness is stronger than the supernatant, so it goes well with the mild sweetness.
It was my first time to taste Momoten, and it was very juicy and delicious!
Good evening, ma-ki-chan 😀
Thank you for enjoying sake from my hometown, Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi Prefecture 😇.
I think the nigori type sake like Yukiten and Momoten has become more delicious since the change of the toji (master brewer) 😇.
Good evening, ma-ki-chan😄
Oh, you beat me to it😆 I also have some here 💁♀️ waiting in the fridge ✌️ I've never had peach heaven, so I'm pretty excited about it ‼️ It looks delicious after all😍It's about to be served at my house too ❣️
Good evening, ma-ki-San🌛I see you went to Momoten🍶I drank it last year so I didn't go through with it this year😅But it still looks delicious🤤Nigori can be enjoyed twice, which is really a good deal. ✨️
Hi ma-ki-, good evening 😀
My colleague at work also bought some Momoten and she said it was delicious and she emptied it so fast ✨.
I kinda haven't had any Tenmi yet 🤔.
Thank you for your comment, Yasbay!
Thank you for letting us drink your delicious sake ✨.
It's a shame we couldn't drink it before the toji changed, but we are very happy with the delicious Amami 😋!
Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama!
I moved it up because I was afraid spring would be over if I waited for my turn 😁✨.
I see you are getting Momoten 🎵.
I'm looking forward to seeing your review 😊.
Thank you for your comment, Gyve.
Yes, I know, I've been thinking about it for a while now and I've been thinking about it for a while now. I moved it up as well 😁✨ because if I didn't, spring would be over.
I look forward to your review of the last remaining winter sake 😊.
Thanks for your comment Kano!
I enjoyed the peach heaven 😋.
Yes, I am very happy to hear that! From here I will enjoy from the few more bottles of spring sake I have left 😊.
Thanks for your comment ichiro18!
I also got Momoten-san after learning about it from Sakenawa: ⤴️
It's a conundrum what to choose from the many spring liquors 😁✨.
I hope you get a chance to try it 😋.
Thanks for your comment Nao888!
I have so many drinks I want to drink, I'm going to prioritize the ones I haven't 😁✨.
Indeed, the Nigori is a great value for money 😋! Nigori is really good value for money 😋!
Lukewarm sake, which we didn't do this time, is also good 😊.
Thank you for your comment, soumacho!
I see that your colleague was also very satisfied with the bottle 🎵.
Oh my, soumacho, you haven't had a bottle of Amami yet 😲.
There are so many different kinds of sake that we want to drink, so it's all about timing 😊.
Thanks for your comment, Pon.
That's right. I thought the cherry blossoms were beautiful while commuting to work and shifted my priority to spring sake🌸.
The first Momoten was a delicious sake that lived up to the rumors 😋.
Please try it next season 😊.
Hi ma-ki-😃
Peach heaven 🍑I looked back, it was more than 3 years ago when we drank it 😅of course I have no record or memory of the second day 😆 but as you said, it was not too sweet and had a nice bitter taste too 😋.
Thanks for your comments Jay & Nobby!
You were drunk 3 years ago 🍑.
I've seen your review: ⤴️
It was indeed a peach heaven, not too sweet with a good bitter taste 😋.
Mr. ma-ki-.
Good evening.
Oh, wow! You got the peach heaven😍
Delicious isn't it?
I always appreciate and admire your detailed reports 😊I can't leave impressions from the second day onwards 😅👍
Thank you for your comment!
I know you were drinking outside too 🎵.
I'm afraid my impressions are always the same and I'm not very good at expressing them 😅.
I'm sorry I'm not very good at expressing my impressions 😅
Tenbi's Momoten🍑, absolutely delicious stuff 😋.
I drink it every year around this time!
It's a round, fruity sake with a slight ooziness 🍶 Negitoro, freshly made tofu, and Odawara satsuma-age,
and Odawara's satsuma-age!
Good evening, Harry!
Momoten, I got mine and started drinking it yesterday 🎵.
Of course I'll be drinking it today too 😁✨.
It was my first time to try Momoten and it is as delicious as the rumors say 😋.
Good evening, ma-ki-chan!
Momoten🍑 is delicious!
Although there is no longer a female master brewer, the taste is still the same.
But the taste is just as good as ever 😋, so
I buy it whenever I see a bottle 😅
Next up is the peach heaven 😆.
Come to think of it, I've never had a peach heaven 😓.
It is slightly sweet and has a good balance of rice flavor and sourness 😊.
Good morning, ma-ki-chan 😆 I finally had a chance to drink 🥳I've had many chances, but the timing was never quite right... 😓Same drink on the same day means that I'm getting more and more addicted to the sake swamp 😆.
Thunberg's geranium (Geranium thunbergii)
Slight aroma, smooth attack. The taste is umami-guchi type dry. It goes in smoothly and has a good sharpness.
Accompanied by myoga (Japanese ginger), amamame (green soybeans), and hatsuatsukatsuo (dried bonito). Spring is in full bloom 🤣.
First peach heaven🎶.
Fruity aroma, slightly effervescent ✨️
The supernatant has a pleasant sweetness and a slight sake taste 🎵.
When mixed with ori, the sweetness becomes stronger and the flavor changes to a more robust one❗️ perfect for this season🌸
Today, I'm having a glass with stir-fried pork kimchi 💮.
Your favorite degree:★★★★★★★★☆☆☆
First time in a long time in Tenmi, first time in Aka-ten.
The aroma is fruity, like grapes and melon, typical of Amami.
The taste has a little sweetness, but overall it is definitely a little dry, especially the sharpness is very good and nothing is left behind!
If you like dry sake, this is a good sake that will satisfy you.
