Deep Roots in Japanese History

As you probably noticed, Japanese whiskey has received a great deal of attention in the past years, playing in the same league as Japanese cuisine, whose claim to fame is to be one of the most refined and healthy in the world. In comparison, Japanese rice wine, i.e. sake, is still little known overseas. It is a shame considering this delicate alcohol can pride itself on more than two millennia of history. 

Japanese sake masters have never stopped trying to reach the perfect taste, honing their craft in accordance with tradition. Japan is lucky to have very well-preserved customs, and the knowledge related to sake is part of it.

The Secret behind every bottle of Sake

As the best wine owes a lot of its qualities to its vineyard, the best sake also has its secrets. The taste of Japanese rice wine depends on many factors, such as the purity of the water, the quality of the rice, the type of yeast used and, of course, the master’s skills. 

One important specificity of sake is the rice polishing ratio. In fact, sakes are classified according to it. For example, a Ginjo indicates 40 percent of the grain used has been polished away. A sake with a ratio of 50 percent polished rice is designated as Daiginjo.
