What is Sweet Sake?

What is Sweet Sake?

If you're not a newcomer to the world of sake, feel free to skip ahead to the ranking. For those of you that just happened to click on this or are curious to learn more about Japanese sake, we thought we'd give you a rundown of what exactly sweet sake is.


Sake is generally thought of in two types of flavor: dry and sweet. Sweet sakes have a higher sugar content. While sake has official classifications such as junmai-shu and junmai ginjo, there's no official "dry" or "sweet" rating. Sake makers came up with this classification themselves to help customers better envision what their wares would taste like.


Because of this, there are those who may find sweet sakes to taste dry or vice versa. Keep this in mind when reading our ranking; after all, your own taste buds are ultimately the deciding factor.

Top 9 Best Sweet Japanese Sakes to Buy Online 2019

We picked out 9 of the most popular products and tested them for the following: how sweet it was, how strong its aroma was, and how strong its flavor was. Our impressions for category were then averaged into a final score of deliciousness. 


Then, based on how they performed on our tests, we graded and ranked the top 9 sweet Japanese sakes available online.


※Japanese prices for the products are given; they’ve merely been converted into USD for easy viewing.

$15.68

The Very Best Sweet Japanese Sake out There

This sweet sake has a refreshing scent that allows you to enjoy your sake experience before you even taste it. The aftertaste is quite crisp as well.


Since the flavor is pronounced but not too strong, we'd recommend having this along with a meal as well as by itself.

The Best Sweet Sake for Light Drinkers

This Ozeki sake has a special blend of citrus and sweet flavors that makes it balanced and refreshing. Its aftertaste is definitely noticeable, but it shouldn't be enough to bother you.


Since this particular sake has a low alcohol content, it would be great for those who can't drink a lot of alcohol.

The Sweetest of Sweet Japanese Sakes

When we sipped this sake for our test, it reminded us of honey. It almost tastes like a dessert. It can start to give off a spoiled smell if left out too long, though, so we'd recommend storing it nice and chilled.


We'd recommend this for those with a sweet tooth; and since the flavor is so sweet and strong, it would probably be better to eat after a meal than with it.

The Best Mild-tasting Sweet Sake

This Hirotogawa sake rose so high in our rankings because it's not too sweet, but it's not bland either. Some may even detect a touch of acidity. 


While we do wish it had a bit more character to its flavor, we enjoyed it enough that we'd recommend it to those looking for a mild-tasting sweet sake.

Good Balance of Sweet and Acidic, but A Little Bitter

This sake tasted like a very well-crafted drink; it had a great balance of sweetness and acidity, along with a bit of a bite. It's like they took all of the goodness of rice and brewed it into one bottle.


Some of our tasters said they found it a touch bitter, but we'd still recommend it as a good bottle for first-time sake drinkers to try.

A Sake That's More Bitter Than Sweet

We didn't find this to be as sweet of a sweet sake as it was advertised, but we can't say we didn't enjoy it. If you're looking to experience a purely sweet sake, though, you may be disappointed. This would be a good sake for those who like a touch of bitterness.

A Sweet Sake That Would Taste Better Warmed

We didn't notice much sweetness in this sake, but we did notice the flavor and feeling of the rice shining through. Some of our testers said it might taste better warmed up. Also, the flavor is mild enough that you could have it with a meal.

Too Acidic to Be A Good Sweet Sake

Some of our testers said this sake tasted like a yogurt drink due to its sour flavor that drowns out the intended sweetness. They also said it would probably suit Italian cuisine, so if that's on your menu, consider pairing it with this sake!

More of a Rose Wine Than a Sweet Sake

Our testers thought, "It looks like rose wine and it smells like rose wine." Sure enough, when they tried it, it also tasted like rose wine. 


Most said this was enough to take it out of the ranking, but others liked it sweet potato-like scent. If you like sweet wines or cocktails, you might like this sake.

{Left: Daisuke Takigawa}
Alcohol Enjoyment Planner

Along with being a certified Sake Advisor and Shochu Advisor, he is a lecturer on sake studies, a sake sommelier, and official taster for the Sake Service Institute (SSI). 


Takigawa became interested in Japanese sake while he was a student, and he wasted no time in acquiring his Sake Advisor certificate by becoming an employee at a store that sold many types of sake. After that, he became the manager of the Junmai-shu Sake Store YATA located in Kanda Nihonbashi. Takigawa boasts that he's such a fan of heated sake he once drank over 10,000 servings in a year.


In recent years, he has become a freelance alcohol adviser to help others understand the appeal of other types of alcohol. 


His favorite type of sake: one that has depth and makes you imagine possibilities; a mysterious sake.

Japanese Sake Ambassador


Reina holds certifications in Japanese sake, international alcohols, cooking, and kimono instructing. 


She was named "Miss Kura 2017" and winner of a Japanese sake beauty pageant, and since then she has been using Instagram to show others the appeal of Japanese sake. She also works as a Japanese sake writer, visiting sake breweries around Japan and writing articles about them. Her Instagram account (@love_sake_tokyo) has over 5,000 followers and she also has experience planning and managing Japanese sake breweries and companies.


Her favorite type of sake: fruity and one with a distinct flavor.

Sake Advisor and Japanese Sake Evangelist


Josen holds a degree in Brewing Science Studies from Tokyo University of Agriculture. He has been known (and teased) since then as "The Sake Advisor with a Low Alcohol Tolerance," and he spends his days writing about Japanese sake to both spread and enlighten others.


He most enjoys sake without prejudice or preconception, simply imagining what kind of place it would suit or what kind of food it would be good with. His motto is "making compromises with Japanese sake fans."


His favorite type of sake: Nothing in particular. For this test, he focused on sake that would be easy for beginners to drink.

How We Tested the Sake

How We Tested the Sake

Our sake specialists taste tested each of the sakes at room temperature. They scored each beverage based on its smell and taste, as well as how easily it went down the throat. 

How We Tested the Sake

Sake that struck a divine balance between sweet and sour received the highest scores. If a sake is just sweet, then it starts to taste like juice; adding some acidity gives the flavor depth and brings out the essence of the rice.

Yuichi Josen
Sake Advisor and Japanese Sake Evangelist
Yuichi Josen

"Raw sake" (生酒) is common among sweet sakes, and while that means it's fresh, its flavor varies widely depending on how it's been stored.


When sake is spoiled, it gives off a specific type of scent called "hinekaori" (ひね香) among sake fans. It loses its flavor when spoiled, so to avoid this, keep it in a cool place away from light.

How to Choose a Sweet Sake - Buying Guide

Here are three big things to look out for.

① Read the Bottle: Negative Numbers Mean More Sweetness

① Read the Bottle: Negative Numbers Mean More Sweetness

If you're new to the world of sake, you may be wondering what all of those numbers in the table meant. Well, that's the Sake Meter Level (SMV), and it indicates the sugar content in a sake. Anything in the positive numbers is considered dry, and anything in the negative numbers is sweet.


If you're looking for an average sweet sake, look for an SMV between -3.5 and -5.9. Anything below -6.0 is considered super sweet. However, if you get too low in the negative numbers, some people claim it starts to taste dry. Sample different SMVs for yourself and get a feel for what you like.

② Save Junmai Daiginjo Sake for Special Occasions

② Save Junmai Daiginjo Sake for Special Occasions

The words "junmai" and "ginjo" and "daiginjo" have been thrown around a lot in this ranking, but we haven't really explained them, have we? These are some of the 8 different classifications of Japanese sake. What separates them from one another is their main ingredients, method of production, and ratio of polished rice.

・Junmai-shu (純米酒), or sake made using only rice and koji (malted rice)
Junmai-shu (純米酒)
Tokubetsu junmai-shu (特別純米酒)
Junmai ginjo (純米吟醸)
Junmai daiginjo (純米大吟醸)

・Non-junmaishu types of sake
Honjozo-shu (本醸造酒)
Tokubetsu honjozo-shu (特別本醸造酒)
Ginjo-shu (吟醸酒)
Daiginjo-shu (大吟醸酒)

Junmai daiginjo is considered to be the top rank of Japanese sake; it's very expensive and tends to be served only on special occasions. If you're looking for most affordable sake, we suggest trying junmai-shu or honjozo-shu. 

③ Consider the Flavor of the Rice

③ Consider the Flavor of the Rice

Japan has a huge variety of rice, and each type has its own unique flavor that is brought out best with sake. Most sweet sakes are made with mild Miyama Nishiki (美山錦) or Yamada Nishiki (山田錦) rice. On the other end of the spectrum are varieties like Gohyakuman-goku (五百万石) rice, which has a bit of a bite to it.


By sampling different types of sake and reading the label on the bottle to see what kind of rice it's made with, you can start to get a feel of what each type of rice brings to the beverage.

Summary

We rounded up three Japanese sake experts, purchased the 9 most popular sweet Japanese sakes, and tested them all.


We learned that the best of the best sweet sakes have a lower Sake Meter Value, are of the Junmai Daiginjo variety, and balance sweet and sour flavors to create a balanced and refreshing flavor. We think the best way to find what kind of sweet sake you like is to sample a large variety, but we hope we've given you a good place to start.
