Grades, Rice polishing & Taste

Sake Classification

What defines Premium Sake and its ingredients?

Explore the different classifications of Premium Sake... For high quality sake, rice is polished prior to processing with the goal of eliminating the bran and protein which encase the starch held at the center of the rice grain. The smaller the rice polishing ratio, the finer and more aromatic the sake.
