The words of nihonshu

Fill the bottle, fill your mind.

What makes a sake junmai? Why is nigori cloudy? Learn the words you’ll hear in a sake brewery and spot on a bottle. Flip the cards to study, with furigana above the kanji to help you read the Japanese. Then take a quiz and watch your sake bottle fill with every right answer.

Start as oimawashi, a brewery hand, and work your way through the crew. Master the glossary to reach kuramoto, the brewery owner.
