Tokyo Sake Tastings
Japanese sake, or nihonshu, is a true cultural gem of Japan. This traditional rice wine, made from premium Japanese rice, pure water, and koji mold, offers a surprisingly diverse range of flavors despite its simple ingredients. The taste of sake can vary greatly depending on factors like fermentation temperature, rice polishing levels and filtration methods. For example, junmai-shu, a classic type of sake, is brewed with rice polished to 70%, giving it a rich, full-bodied flavor and higher acidity. On the other hand, daiginjo-shu, with rice polished down to 50%, delivers a smoother taste and more delicate aroma.
