Sake

Made from fermented rice, sake is categorized by the amount of raw rice kernel that is milled away. The more outer surface removed, the higher the quality, though other factors also come into play. My advice is buy some to try or visit a good Japanese restaurant with a deep sake list. You’ll find a satisfying drink with subtle floral, citrus, and orchard fruit flavours that pairs well with food, especially umami-rich foods. - Darren Oleksyn
