✤ SAKÉ BREWING ✤
Saké is made with 4 ingredients: [1] Rice [2] Water [3] Yeast [4] Koji-kin (spores of the fungus "aspergillus oryzae). As there are only 4 ingredients, each plays an integral part in the finished product. The process of brewing sake is very complex so, please see the event's home page for a simplified explanation or, make sure to chat with the importers at the venue for further explanation.
