Tengumai
Kurumata Shuzo’s Tengu Mai sake is brewed using the Yamahai brewing method, one of the most traditional methods of sake production. The Yamahai brewing method was founded in the 1960s by Juro Kurumata and Saburo Nakasaburo. Today, the company continues to preserve and improve this tradition to brew sake that is rich in flavor and crisp in texture
The water used to brew Tengu Mai comes from the underground water flowing from Mt. Tengu Mai values nature’s bounty and brews many of its sake products using the Yamahai method. The company hopes to pass on the art of sake brewing to the younger generation and create new traditions, and is constantly striving to brew better tasting sake by continuing and improving upon traditions.
In order to preserve the natural sake color, Tengumai avoids the use of activated charcoal and instead uses a method in which koji mold is propagated. This method produces a natural flavor that is unique to Tengumai.
The company believes in passing on tradition to the next generation and continuing to brew sake with nature. Tengu Mai maintains the traditional method of sake brewing called Yamahai Brewing, and pursues the delicious taste of sake while respecting the ingredients and the bounty of nature.
