Tenjaku was created to celebrate the appreciation of the local environment, the gifts of nature, and skilled craftsmanship. Crafted as a smooth whisky that suits any tasting style, whether on the rocks, in a cocktail, or served in the traditional Mizuwari style, Tenjaku will be perfect for any occasion.

Tenjaku is grown in the city of Fuefuki, located in the eastern part of the Kofu Basin in Yamanashi Prefecture. This fertile land, surrounded by towering peaks, with the Chichibu Mountains rising to the north and the Misaka mountain range to the south, is recognized as Japan's main peach and grape producing region. Overlooking Mount Fuji and the Southern Alps, it is a place blessed with lush nature, with verdant forests, beautiful orchards, hot springs, and crystal-clear streams.

It can be said that water is the "soul" of whisky. Fuefuki is situated atop a system of river fans, where the excellent natural water of the Misaka mountain range flows. It is 250 meters below this land that pure groundwater is extracted. Filtered through porous volcanic rocks, it is perfect for dilution in the creation of blended whiskies . Velvety and smooth, with a slightly alkaline pH. The moderate mineral content present in the water creates a smooth, easy-to-drink whisky with a well-balanced flavor.
