Japanese SAKE&Pottery


SAKE&POTTERY

I would like to introduce sake as a part of Japanese culture, in English. Thank you.

What's "junmai"

Made with only rice, water and koji mold. The rice used must be polished to at least 70%**. Often a full and solid flavor profile, clean and well structured. Note also Tokubetsu Junmai-shu, or "Special Junmai-shu," which merely indicates more highly polished rice, or the use of very special sake rice.
