Tentaka “Organic”
Tochigi prefecture
All organic, all good
Rice-growing is such an important part of this sake and comes through via tasting; notes of fresh cut grass, melon rind, slight smokiness on finish, steamed rice aromas. The only sake available in the US with triple organic certification from Japan ecocert, USDA, and EU

Tentaka Brewing Company
Brewed in a landlocked region, Tentaka sake is locally treasured with only a small amount of sake leaving the prefecture. It celebrates the local flavors of rustic, savory, and meaty foods by brewing rich sake with high acidity. President Ozaki’s passion for the environment has led the brewery to use local ingredients, to reuse production byproducts, and to get Organic Certification in Japan, the US, and the European Union—one of only two breweries with triple certification.
