When I went to buy a certain sake that I had requested to reserve, I found a tasting event at Choshu Shuzo, which is famous for Amami. Normally, I tend to skip tastings, and Tenbi is not one of my favorite sakes, but something about it made me think and I was drawn to try it. He had never had a Hakuten before...only Momoten and Aoten. I tasted this one and was surprised at how good it tasted. Yes, I bought it!
Sake lees? Koji? It has a wonderful amazake-like aroma. I remember a few years ago, Ona's first squeezed sake had this kind of nuance... I hope they bring that back lol.
It has a gentle and beautiful sake quality with little miscellaneous taste and low acidity. It is a good sake to serve as a food sake. It has a fruity overtone and a sweet umami flavor of rice, like the honey of a delicious flower. It is a good match for light foods such as fish and vegetables. It would go well with meat as long as the seasoning is not too strong.
I have to admit that I had been avoiding Matsumoto Sake Brewery, famous for Sawaya Matsumoto, because of the resignation of its master brewer. But the brewery overcame that and continues to make sake that is as good as ever. I was very impressed!

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
Thank you for your kind words: ☺️
I hope you get it...
I've tasted many of their wines and I personally think Amami is a particularly good fruity dry brewery!
