Sentoku is the flagship brand of Sentoku Shuzo, the pride of Miyazaki Prefecture's only sake-exclusive brewery. It is brewed using traditional methods with subterranean water from the Gokase River sourced from Takachiho and sake rice cultivated by local contract farmers.
The lineup ranges broadly from honjozo to daiginjo, with junmai sake at its core. The junmai sake in particular is a masterpiece, with Miyazaki Prefecture-grown rice polished to 60%, capturing the umami of rice in every drop. It is characterized by a gentle aroma and a clean mouthfeel, with an acidity of 1.5 that achieves an exquisite balance perfect as a food-pairing sake.
It possesses the robust flavor and rich taste common to Kyushu sakes, with enough strength to stand up to sweetly seasoned dishes. It pairs exceptionally well with Miyazaki's local cuisine, including Nobeoka's famous chicken nanban, as a local sake that has been nurtured alongside the region's food culture.
With an impressive record of gold medals at the Annual Japan New Sake Awards, it demonstrates consistent technical skill and high quality. Sentoku is a signature Miyazaki sake brand that embodies the philosophy and craftsmanship of Sentoku Shuzo, which continues to preserve sake culture in the shochu kingdom of Miyazaki.
