What is Sake?
Let's start with the basics. What is sake anyway? Well, simply put, it's a Japanese traditional alcohol made from fermented rice. In Japanese, it's called 'Nihonshu' 日本酒, which literally translates to 'Japan's alcohol.'

Hot or Cold?

There are basically two different ways to enjoy your sake: 'hiya' and 'atsukan.' Hiya means cold style for which you refrigerate not only the sake but also the tokkuri and the ochoko. On the other hand, atuskan is a heated style, for which you heat the sake in a tokkuri placed in hot water. Some sakes are better drunk hiya style, others are better atsukan style, and some are excellent done both ways. What's interesting is that the taste and smell may change drastically depending on the temperature the sake is served. You might want to experience with both to see which one you prefer.

Glassware?

Treat chilled sake similar to wine; in order to really get the aromas and the nose you should swirl and sniff. Traditionally we know that sake is served in those teeny tiny cups, but premium grade should be served in larger glass—a wine glass works—so its aromas can open up. Also, in Japan, once you open it and present it….you leave bottle on table and serve each other—you should never pour your own sake, it’s a privilege to pour sake for guests and others.
