Sake Tasting Notes

Sake rewards the same systematic approach as wine but punishes the same assumptions. The categories (Junmai, Ginjo, Daiginjo, Nigori) are defined by production method and rice polishing ratio, not by region or grape variety. The rice variety and water source matter enormously, but you won't read them on most labels exported to the West.

I enjoy learning sake as a new area now, expanding on what I know from wine.
