MUSUBI is the first brown rice sake that Terada Honke has succeeded in commercializing after seven long years of research & development into effective techniques to brew sake from sprouted brown rice. It tastes sour and has a characteristic smell similar to the fermented rice bran used for pickling known as nukazuke. The common reaction from consumers that take a sip of this sake for the first time is that of surprise. It is so interesting that there is complete opposite feedback on this sake, as some say “it’s sour and doesn’t taste good,” while others exclaim that “it’s so delicious!” Keisuke even used to market this product as the “worst-tasting sake in Japan.” Fortunately, MUSUBI has been loved by many to this day, regarding it as a brand that offers an unforgettable taste that makes them beg for more and want to come back again and again.

Description

Established in 1670, Terada Honke made a decision about 30 years ago to part ways with the industrial brewing methods of postwar Japan and take sake back to its roots. 24th-generation kuramoto Terada Masaru is following in his predecessor’s footsteps, leading a brewery where the whole incredibly labor-intensive process is done by hand. The rice used is all organic, and most of it is polished far less than the average in the industry. Fermentation relies on brewery propagated kōji (a rarity) and either kimoto or bodaimoto fermentation methods, which when combined with the little-polished rice, results in tastes that are bold, full-bodied, and expressive with a signature high presence of lactic acid.
