Sake

Sake is a traditional rice wine from Japan, although it's more a beer than a wine. It is made by fermenting rice that has been polished to remove the bran. The difference being in beer and in most East Asian rice wines, starch is first converted to sugar which is then fermented to alcohol, where as in wine, alcohol is produced by fermenting sugar that is naturally present in fruits, like grapes. But there is a difference in the brewing process of beer and sake despite the similar starch to alcohol process. that is, unlike beer where start to sugar and sugar to alcohol are created in two distinct steps, sake is produced in one single fermentation process.

Sake is the national beverage of Japan and is served in special ceremonies, gently warmed and served in small porcelain cups called sakazuki. Sake uses K?ji-kin or Aspergillus Oryzae spores, instead of Yeast for the fermentation, koji-kin and yeast both are eukaryotic, single-celled microorganisms from the fungus family.
