Tenbi Junmai Gingo

Tenbi’s Junmai Ginjo is produced at the Shimonoseki-based brewery established in 2020 by Toji Miki Fujioka. Crafted using Yamada Nishiki rice polished to a 60% ratio, the sake is formulated with techniques that emphasize strict fermentation control and precise milling standards. The production employs traditional Junmai Ginjo methods while integrating modern approaches that yield a product initially exhibiting mild natural carbonation that stabilizes over time. Attention to process details—including controlled oxidation and a measured interplay of umami compounds, acidity, bitterness, and dryness—reflects a philosophy that even subtle differences in technique can significantly influence the final structural profile. The label design further underscores the complexity and craftsmanship inherent in the production process.

Geography

 

Harvest

Rice milling employs both traditional techniques with rice polished to 50% and modern methods achieving a 60% Seimaibuai for Nama Genshu and Junmai Ginjo styles.
 

Fermentation

Production is executed in its first season using Nama Genshu methods with precise micro-management and microbiological control, ensuring a strong upfront flavor and a supremely quick finish.
 

Aging

Controlled oxidation is applied to yield a light, bright, and slightly effervescent character with an evolving profile as the sake gradually warms in the glass.
