    What are the main types of sake?

    Question #50860. Asked by Buck540.

    Baloo55th

    There are five types made from nine basic types of rice - I quote:
    # Junmai-shu (pure rice wine; at least 30% of rice polished away; no adding of distilled alcohol)
    # Honjozo-shu (at least 30% of rice polished away; a tad of distilled alcohol is added)
    # Ginjo-shu (at least 40% of rice polished away; with or without alcohol added; if bottle is labeled Ginjo, it means distilled alcohol was added; if labeled Junmai Ginjo, it means no alcohol added)
    # Daiginjo-shu (at least 50% of rice polished away; again with or without added alcohol; if bottle is labeled Daiginjo, it means distilled alcohol was added; if labeled Junmai Daiginjo, it means no alcohol added)
    # Namazake (special 5th designation for unpasteurized sake; incorporates all four above)
    And I don't care what they say, it tastes better to me chilled. Not really worth buying, buy much better chilled....

    There are five main types (all arising from exasperation):

    1. Forpete's
    2. Ohforgoodness

    and

    3. Forpity's

    are three. The remaining two cannot be replicated on a family site such as this.
