Tenka Nishiki is brewed in the facilities of Shimizu Seizaburo Shoten, a brewery known for its "Saku" brand of sake.
It has a gentle yet gorgeous grape-like aroma. On the tongue, the fruity freshness and the mild sweetness of the rice are both gentle and clear. The bitterness that forms the base of the wine balances the overall taste well, and the finish is elegant yet drinkable.
A grape-like aroma.
Aroma of grape.
The sweetness is surprisingly less pronounced than the aroma, and the taste is crisp.
The umami is light and clear.
It has a slight bitterness and a pleasant sharpness.
Easy to drink.
Refreshing.
Degree of liking ☆4/5
A wonderful sake.
I heard that it is produced in small quantities and is not sold in other prefectures.
Not too sweet, not too spicy, not too sharp, but pleasant. Banana-like aftertaste?
The label on the back is very familiar.
I bought it at Nikomart Sake Shop when I visited Ise Jingu Shrine.

The manager said that this Tenka-nishiki is a special sake.
The toji was injured and the rice that was to be made into Amaganishiki was specially brewed only this year at a sake brewery in Saku.
So the label says it was made in Suzuka!
A little dry but still delicious!
On this day, we had a standard course meal, but they served it with even better ingredients than usual!
Thank you everyone 😭
I heard they have a few more drinks so I'm going to continue drinking!
The younger members have started drinking beer 🍺 shochu, wine 🍷 and many other things!

Almost a casual drink with the owner, Mr. Kawada, at the standing drinking place, Chuin🍶.
The second sake was this one, which came out when the owner said, "We have an interesting sake here. The second sake was this one.
The second sake was this one, which came out when we were told, "We have an interesting sake here.
Fukumochi Sake Brewery, which brews Tenga-Nishiki in Mie Prefecture, had an unforeseen accident in 2023BY and was unable to brew any more.
This is the "Suzuka Brewing" 🍶.
I was surprised to find out that if it is brewed with the same facilities as the "Saku" brewery, it is almost like a "Saku"....
The palate is clear with a slightly solid sweetness, a memorable "Saku" flavor! It is a memorable "Saku".
Then, after spreading throughout the mouth, a slight change is felt, and gradually, "Oh, this is not "Saku"🤔", with a slightly complex acidity and umami.
The sharpness is good, and the aftertaste is reasonable.
Interesting!
Sake that looks like a sake but is not.
Perhaps because of the use of equipment such as a pastry riser, it has a fresh taste despite being fire-aged, and the impression at the beginning is that of Saku, and then the Tenkanishiki comes to the fore and pulls away in a friendly manner.
I can't compare the two until I try the genuine Tenga-Nishiki, but I found this to be quite tasty 🍶.

This sake was made by renting a place at Saku's brewery to make Tenga Nishiki.
It has a melon-type aroma. There is a little sweetness to umami, astringency, and acidity. The final taste is refreshing.
It has the atmosphere of Saku. It has less sweetness than Saku. We enjoyed it with miso-pickled silver fillets, salad, and chicken in a clear soup with lots of ingredients. I think it is a food sake with a strong flavor.
As the label on the back says, it is a special Suzuka brewed by Saku and Sake Brewery.
Not too sweet and easy to drink. The finish seems to go with everything. It is delicious!
