You may think you need to drink it up within a day after you open the bottle. Should you have a concern in your mind, you may hesitate to open casually.
I’d like to tell you a tip for you. Sake is not necessary to finish within a day after opening the bottle.

Sake is delicate alcohol but carefully produced artisan Sake maintain its quality very long. It’s said that Sake doesn’t have the limit of consumption if it’s preserved under the low temperature like 0 degrees.

Even though you open the bottle, you can keep enjoying the Sake for at least one week. The taste and aroma are changing, but it won’t degrade rapidly if you put it in the fridge.
*Aromatic and light-bodied dry Sake tends to degrade relatively quick.

Moreover, oxidization promotes the maturing of Sake and Sake sometimes blooms at 2nd day. Especially, unpasteurized Sake has more chances to enjoy its bloom. As you may know, yeasts are still alive in the unpasteurized Sake so that the taste is changing more rapidly than the pasteurized ones.

Some of the Sake lovers dare to open the bottle and wait for a few days until the Sake blooms.
That is why we don’t need to finish a bottle of Sake in one day. Please enjoy the change of taste slowly.
