SAKE
Sake is a traditional beverage with a history as old and storied as that of wine or beer. Brewed like beer but with flavors similar to wine, great sake can be elegant and richly flavored as some of the finest wines in the world.

The production of sake begins with rice. There are over 200 varieties of sake rice, grown especially for its hard outer shell and soft starchy inner core. The degree of quality is determined largely by the amount the rice grains are polished - as much as 65% of the rice grain is removed in top quality sake. The polished rice is then steamed. After cooling, koji - mold spore - is added to rice. Koji converts the rice starch to glucose. Water is added, and then yeast to convert the glucose to alcohol; sake naturally ferments to a 20% alcohol level. Lastly, spring water is added to reduce the alcohol level to about 15% at which time it is then filtered and bottled.

While sake may have similarities with wine or beer, it has a language all its own. The following terms and their meaning will help you to understand the differences between the sakes available to you.

Shu: Suffix, means Ale or Sake"
Junmai: Sake brewed using only rice, water, koji and yeast.
Daiginjo: Sake brewed with rice polished to 50% of its original size.
Ginjo: Sake brewed with rice polished to 60% of its original size.
Tokubetsu: A special designation from the brewery.
Nigori: Cloudy. Sake that has been roughly filtered so that some of the rice and koji in the fermenting tank make it into the bottle.
Genshu : Sake that has not been diluted with natural spring water. These sakes usually have a 20% alcohol level.
