What is Sake?

Sake is a Japanese alcoholic beverage made of rice, water, Koji and yeast.
Although sake is known as “Japanese rice wine”, it is quite different from wine. Rather, sake is brewed like beer (alcohol produced through fermentation of starches.)
However, sake is not quite like beer either, since the majority of sake is non-carbonated, and the alcohol content is much higher than beer.
Sake is unique, and it deserves its own category!
