The Jinbeh Story
The truth about sake quality: premium sake always performs better cold. The rice is polished repeatedly, each pass producing a finer grade. Hot sake uses the unpolished leftovers. Higher-quality cold sake also produces fewer headaches the next day.
Origin & Tradition
Sake has been brewed in Japan for over 2,000 years. It is made from rice, water, yeast, and koji mold. The brewing process is closer to beer than wine.
