Sake is a purely fermented alcohol beverage made from rice and water as main ingredients. It is important part of Japanese life and culture and has a long history over 2500 years. Production wise, it is similar to beer but taste wise closer to wine. Sake has a special characteristic of lifting up the taste of food with its wider variety of flavours and aroma. It could be paired with any other cuisine but of course enjoyable by its own – both ways cold and hot. Sake is not only tasty but also has less acidity and calories than wine. WHAT IS SHOCHU? Shochu is a traditional Japanese distilled spirits made from grains and vegetables such as barley, rice, potato and shiso leaf. The highest alcohol volume of Shochu can reach 45% but the average is around 25% - weaker than Whisky or standard strength Vodka, but much stronger than Sake and Wine. Shochu could be enjoyed during the meal on the rock, with water, soda, or even with hot water, as well as for cocktails.
