Tensei “Song of the Sea”
Kanagawa prefecture
As refreshing as an oceanside stroll
Brewmaster Tetsuro Igarashi brews beer as well as sake, and his fermentation expertise is evident in this richly layered junmai ginjo. Made with Association No. 9 yeast sourced from its brewery of origin rather than the Brewing Society of Japan, the result is aromatic and lively, evoking memories of the beach. “Song of the Sea” is an ode to the brewery’s seaside location in Kanagawa.
