Sake is made from rice. What type of rice, then?
There are 100 different types of sake rice in Japan. -we call, "Sakamai".
'Wait it a minute, they use the different kind of rice to make sake?'
Oh, yes! One of top 10 sakamai, Miyamanishiki which grows widly in Nagano prefecture in Japan, as the example, farmers raise it in the organic rice fields which took for 3 years- rest.
Since they don't use any pesticides either artificial fertilizers for the soil,
picking the weeds out everyday is one of their backbreaking chores until the rice become fully grown.
