The closing dish at this restaurant is also Tenmu.
It is my favorite taste as it has been since the first time I had it.
The gorgeous ginjo aroma of pear, melon, and white peach overflows. The attack is mellow on the palate. Creaminess with umami, and the fruit flavors felt in the aroma spread out. The penetrating power of the lingering finish is superb, and despite the mellowness of the mid-palate, the finish is delicate, as if drawing a line in the sand.

Nearly transparent with a slight amber color.
The aroma has a hint of yellow apples and melon, but it is mild. It has a strong thickening and not much acidity. The aftertaste is not that long, and is somewhere between powerful and elegant. Soukunshu?
Nishi Shuzo, famous for its sweet potato shochu "Hozan," has created a sake!
Junmai Ginjo-shu made with Yamada-Nishiki. It is a refined sake that should be drunk with a glass of wine. The glass overflows with a gorgeous ginjo aroma of pears, melon, and white peaches. When the glass is turned to let the air in, the aroma of yogurt, fresh cheese, fresh chestnuts, and chestnut flowers can also be detected, allowing you to enjoy the harmony of layers of aromas. On the palate, the attack is mellow. Creaminess with umami, and the fruit flavors that were also present in the aroma spread out. The lingering finish has excellent penetrating power, and despite the richness of the mid-palate, the finish is delicate, as if drawing a straight line.
It can be paired with a wide range of Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes as a food wine, such as sashimi, Japanese dishes with soup stock, Western dishes with butter or cream, fatty Kurobuta pork shabu-shabu, and savory dishes such as tempura and fried dishes.

It's reassuring! Sweet, but not too heavy!
Not like fruity, but not like sugar sweetness or mustiness either!
More rice sweetness than fruity?
It's not fruity, but it's not too heavy either! It is a sweetness that is not too heavy, but not too sugary!
A clean sweetness that is not too sugary until the end! If you make a mistake, it might be too sweet. A perfect balance!

It's been quite a while since I've had Tenpyo 🤔.
I imagined it to be a bit classic because it's Junmai, but it's fruity like other Tenpikake.
Maybe it tastes more satisfying than Junmai Ginjo 🤔.
It seems like this is only available in Sandesi and I've never seen it for sale 😅
I've never seen it sold anywhere else 😅 I was told it's sold at XX Sake Shop, but I told them I don't see that much Tenpiseki there. I told him that.
It's not like they have it all the time😅.
I talked with him for a while and he was very nice, so I promised him I would go to Akagisan later! I promised 😁.
First souvenir from my wife's trip to Kagoshima: the rumored Tenpyo.
It had a fruity taste like a ginjo.
Sweetness and acidity that lingers on the palate.
Delicious sake!
I don't think it's the ginjo aroma I often drink, fruity.
It seems to have an acidity.
Pointy and sharp, almost like a white wine.
There is also a sense of junmai rice.
