Taiheizan “Tenko 50” Heavenly Grace

“Tenko 50” debuted in 2018 as a casual, entry-level junmai daiginjo that is both affordable and satisfying. The 50 in the name comes from the fact that the Yamadanishiki rice is polished to 50%. Using soft spring water, this sake delivers a peachy aroma. The fruit notes carry over to the palate, along with some mineral quality and slight effervescence that end with a tart aftertaste.
