rice wine

Rice wines are alcoholic beverages made from rice. Unlike wine, which is made by fermentation of naturally sweet grapes and other fruit, rice "wine" results from the fermentation of rice starch converted to sugars. This process is akin to that used to produce beer, however, beer production employs a  mashing process to convert starch to sugars whereas rice wine uses the different amylolytic process.

Sake (; ) is a Japanese alcoholic beverage made from rice. In Japanese, the word sake may also loosely refer to other types of alcoholic beverage. The word nihonshu (literally, "Japan alcoholic beverage") is used to distinguish true sake from other beverages. In English, the word sake never refers to anything other than nihonshu. This article uses the word "sake" as it is used in English.
