warm sake
Hot Japanese alcohol
Warm sake is Japanese rice wine served heated, typically between 100–120°F.
Heating releases aromatic compounds and softens the flavor, making it a traditional choice for winter or with hearty dishes.
The temperature is called *kan* in Japanese, with various degrees from lukewarm to hot: I'll have the warm sake with my ramen.
