Gonin Musume Junmai
寺田本家 5人娘 純米
Yukigesho and Miyamanishiki rice milled to 70%, and grown chemical and pesticide-free.
A natural sake that is the root of Terada Honke’s shift to a traditional and natural way of crafting sake. A Kimoto method starter mash is used and no use of inoculated yeast relying on airborne yeast to carry out fermentation. Bottled without charcoal filtration, the sake will have some colour and light sediment, which comes naturally from the rice.
The name Gonin Musume, meaning, the Five Girls, came from a poet who once visited and was surprised at how the brewery was so lively and full of activity, and dedicated this name to a natural sake that is unprocessed, lively and pure to its roots.
