Junmai Namaishu Orikagarumi Junmai Nakadori Ⅱ 65 Miyamanishiki from Aizu, 50 Yamadanishiki from Aizu
Slightly spicy. The taste is firm and the umami is well conveyed.
The aroma was very fresh, with a soft, soft sweetness spreading on the palate, and a pleasant bitterness coming from the back of the mouth, making the drink finish clean and smooth!
Merry Christmas✨
Today was a holiday, so I went on a sticker hunt with the kids and got some raw bone-in chicken thighs from the supermarket and braised them in red wine.
I had saved some for this day....
I saved the Tenmei for this day!
It's so delicious!
Sweet and sour, but also crispy!
Tenmei Junmai Namaishu Nakadori Zero.
This year, it has a fresh ginjo aroma with a hint of green before mixing in the oli.
When you drink it, the sweetness comes first, followed by a beautiful acidity and umami.
After mixing the oli, you will feel the same smooth mouthfeel.
When it is included, the sweetness and umami soften and the acidity gradually builds up from the middle to the front.
The freshness is good and the taste is beautiful.
This beautiful flavor is the same as every other year, and this year, while fading slowly, the gentle acidity and astringency leaves a slight aftertaste that goes well with food.
The slow lingering finish is really good, and the slight bitterness at the end is pleasant.
This year I think the sweetness is a little stronger. Thank you very much for your hospitality.
Tenmei era (1781.4.2-1789.1.25)
Akebono (lake monster said to be one of the most wicked and powerful fish in Japan)
The label is fancy and nice. The taste is also very ricey. The first 2025 new sake brewed with very early rice.
The brewery's name "Akebono" comes from the passage "Haru wa Akebono" in "The Pillow Book" and "Tenmei" was chosen as a synonym for the brand name!
Akebono has a history of three generations of female brewers, which is rare for a sake brewery.
Since 2011, the sixth generation, Koichi Suzuki (male brewer) has led the brewery, which includes many female staff members, to create a vibrant brewery.
This is my first Tenmei, but I was attracted by the label! I was going to buy it when I saw the No. Zero, but I missed the timing, so I bought the No. 1!
This sake is made from Yamadanishiki and Gohyakumangoku ✨.
The aroma is sweet fruity, melon, banana, with a hint of citrus 🤔.
I can really feel some gas. The mouthfeel is beautiful. Modest sweetness, beautiful umami, acidity that builds up, and a little sharpness.
There is a little lees and it is stirred. The flavor increases and the juiciness of the umami is felt, but the acidity is still high and sharp, so the wine is refreshing.
On the third day, the gas is gone, the juiciness remains the same, and the acidity becomes milder and easier to drink 🥰.
Good morning, ichiro18 😃!
Unexpectedly, congratulations on your first Tenmei ㊗️ 🎉 We have only had the fourth in this series 😅 but I'd like to attack it slowly 😅....
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃.
Thank you 😊I bought the label but I'm glad I got to drink it once. I guess I'm going to attack it slowly too 🤣I'm interested in the rest of the series too 😋.
Hello ichiro18😃
I see it was your first time at Tenmei 👀.
I've only had the Summer Fireworks label, but I was under the impression that it was a refreshing and tasty sake ✨.
I guess the label does change the willingness to buy 😁.
Good evening, Chirsta 😃.
The summer Tenmei's Fireworks label was also a label I would like to buy 🥰I would like to drink Tenmei's simple label, but the beautiful label is still my first priority 😁.
Tenmei, HOMURA, Yamahai yeast, special junmai, twice-hiked
It tastes just fine chilled, but it is best lukewarm.
Slightly spicy with a lingering acidity that goes well with oden
Screw stopper type
My favorite liquor store had in stock a kijo-zake brewed with "Tenmei" Kame-no-o, so I immediately bought it. It tasted like a new light nigori sake that was smooth, sweet, delicious, and fizzy with a hint of orikomi.
The aroma was sweet like pineapple or muscat, and the sake was enjoyable in both aroma and taste, so the saké went on and on.
It is a good sake to drink as a dessert after warmed sake.
