About Sake

:
Sake is a Japanese spirit that has been a traditional and popular drink among the Japanese for many centuries and of course still is. Traditionally, Sake is drunk with food and especially at a warm temperature, which is considered good Japanese custom as the bouquet of the rice wine is released by heat, but Sake can also be enjoyed cold and at room temperature. Today, however, more and more Japanese people are using sake in a variety of drinks, especially the younger generation.

Japan's global popularity has led to Sake not only being drunk in Japan, but also around the world, and especially in Denmark we love a glass of Sake with our sushi. So take the plunge and experience the Japanese spirit!
