[Two Awards Achieved!] "Tengumai Yamahai Pure Rice Sake" from "Shata Brewery" achieved great success at the Paris Sake Competition.

"Tengumai Yamahai Pure Rice Sake" from "Shata Brewery" is a product that is well known to all Japanese sake lovers. This signature product from Tengumai, which is synonymous with pure rice sake and yamahai brewing, is a unique pure rice sake with a well-balanced rich aroma and acidity that is unique to the yamahai brewing method. This product won both the "Classic Moto Jury Prize" and the "Alliance Gastronomy Award" at the "Kura Master Sake Competition 2024", held in Paris, France in June.

The "Kura Master Sake Competition" is a sake competition held in France for French people. The judges are M.O.F. holders, the highest qualification for craftsmen in France, alcohol experts such as sommeliers, bartenders, and curators (professions who give advice to buyers during tastings at wineries, etc.) from first-class hotels in France, and people from the food and beverage industry such as chefs and restaurant owners.

The "Alliance Gastronomy Award" is a special award that recognizes pairings with food, and this is the first time "Shata Brewery" has won the award. It was awarded in recognition of the excellent compatibility between sake and traditional French charcuterie (ham, sausage, terrine, etc.). Since its founding in 1823 during the late Edo period, "Shakata Brewery" has been brewing sake on the Kaga Plains overlooking Mount Haku, and aims to create delicious sake that can be enjoyed with various meals. For such a company, it must be especially pleasing to have their sake recognized in food pairing .

This pure rice sake has a deep golden yellow color that is pleasing to the eye. If you are interested, check out the official website.
