Tasting Notes

Tenbi Kara Ten opens with ripe white grape and a subtle, lively effervescence. The palate is rich and savory yet firmly dry, with restrained sweetness, bright freshness, and a clean, crisp finish. Its concentrated flavor and brisk structure make it especially refreshing at the table.

Best served well chilled. Pair with seared tuna with ponzu, grilled salmon, yakitori, fried dishes, or other rich and savory foods.

Overview

Tenbi Kara Ten, known in Japan as Karaten (辛天), takes Tenbi’s signature white-grape richness, crisp lift, and subtle carbonation in a decidedly drier direction. Rather than defining dryness by the usual sake meter value alone, the brewery carefully reduces residual glucose by balancing two types of koji mold with Association Yeast No. 701. The result is a full-flavored Tokubetsu Junmai with restrained sweetness, refreshing tension, and enough depth to stand up to a wide range of foods.

Tenbi's name draws on Amaterasu, associated with the sun that nurtures rice, and biroku, an old expression for sake. Its visual symbol evokes fermentation at its most active, reflecting the brewery's new chapter in Shimonoseki.

Softness with a spark. In Tenbi’s core releases, fresh fruit, gentle sweetness and refreshing acidity meet a fine touch of fermentation gas. To SAKEZEN, the charm lies in that combination of softness and energy, with a natural place alongside food.
