Tentaka, a small sake brewery, firmly believes that the key to crafting exceptional sake lies in using the finest ingredients. They meticulously select the best rice varieties and production locations for their sake brewing. In pursuit of even higher quality, Tentaka has recently partnered with farmers who share their vision, focusing on the importance of rice cultivation in the sake brewing process. The brewery aspires to create unique sake using rice grown by their own hands, leveraging the advantages of being a small brewery in a small town. Tentaka aims to directly contribute to the development of an ideal environment for rice paddies and produce sake that is distinctly their own. In January 2018, they established a subsidiary company, "Tentaka Organic Farm Co., Ltd.," dedicated to growing organic rice.
Tentaka's Junmai sake, a traditional style commonly found in Izakayas across Japan, is a perfect companion for barbeque. The brewery's name, which translates to "hawk in the heavens," is a symbol of prosperity and good fortune in Japanese culture. This rustic, high-acid sake offers a dry and crisp profile, with flavors dominated by mixed nuts, freshly cut green grass, and other earthy notes. The medium-bodied sake boasts a rich mouthfeel, followed by a lengthy and dry finish. It pairs exceptionally well with hearty grains, mushrooms, beef, lamb, and dishes featuring BBQ sauce, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a sake that can stand up to bold flavors.
