Tengumai Yamahai Junmai Daiginjo: Earthy, Complex and Harmoniously Balanced
Tengumai Yamahai Junmai Daiginjo is a refined sake from Shata Shuzō, located in Ishikawa Prefecture. Crafted using the traditional yamahai method, this sake undergoes a longer natural fermentation that imparts deeper umami, structure and complexity. Made from Yamadanishiki rice polished to 50%, it is aged over a year in tank before bottling, offering a mature and well-rounded expression.
On the nose, Tengumai Yamahai reveals layered aromas of toasted rice, honey, nuts, and dried herbs, with subtle notes of mushroom and citrus peel. The palate is full-bodied and savory, displaying flavors of hazelnut, ginger, butterscotch and umami-rich rice, all lifted by a balanced acidity. The finish is long, dry, and silky, with a clean mineral edge and lasting warmth.
The yamahai brewing technique allows wild lactic acid bacteria to develop naturally, giving this sake a bold and earthy profile while maintaining elegance through expert control. It is a perfect choice for those who appreciate depth and nuance in their sake experience.
Tengumai Yamahai Junmai Daiginjo is best served slightly chilled or at room temperature to highlight its complexity. It pairs beautifully with dishes like grilled fish, roasted mushrooms, aged cheeses, miso-based broths, or even light game.
Whether you're unwinding in Dubai’s Al Safa or sharing a thoughtful meal in Abu Dhabi’s Marina Village, Tengumai Yamahai Junmai Daiginjo brings richness and sophistication to any occasion. With CityDrinks, the UAE’s leading online liquor store, it can be delivered chilled to your door within two hours.
