You properly heat up sake by first pouring it in to a ceramic sake bottle, and then placing the ceramic bottle in to a pot of almost boiling water, until the sake in the ceramic bottle is approximately 104 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, pour in to small cups and serve.

Sake was originally created in Japan. It is an alcoholic drink made from Japanese-style rice, polished down and fermented with a special type of mold called koji. As with wine, there are several classes and many types of sake. What really makes the idea of sake interesting is that while it is referred to as a type of wine, it is more closely related to beer (in the sense that it is fermented instead of just aged). However, it does not contain carbonation like beer, and the aroma is similar to that of White Zinfandel. An important note: sake is not remotely related to gin, vodka, or any other type of hard liquor. Do not mistake it for such. After it is fermented and stabilized for about 6 months (from the beginning of the polishing process to the entrance in the market, the time is about 8-9 months) the sake is transported to the market and exported to other countries around the globe. Sake is bottled (or transported in casks; this is common on street markets in Japan and China) and bought by consumers (that would be you). Traditionally, sake was drunk from cubic, hollow wooden cups called masu. This practice was discontinued for a long time due to the taste being affected by the unfinished wood. You can still find modern versions of masu in many places. In contemporary households sake is either refridgerated or stored in dry places, with a sake serving vase and 2-4 cups, about the size of a restaurant green teacup. These vases and cups can be made from many materials, including clay, ceramics, glass, even industrial plastic. They come in many different styles, the most common being the teacup-esque container, a shot glass, and the European aperitif glass. In many bars and restaurants sake cups will be filled to the brim, as to symbolize hearty welcome and wishes of abundance and prosperity. Sometimes, in very fine establishments particularly, the modern sake cup will sit in a masu, letting the overflowing sake form a pool at the bottom of the masu. It is customary to drink sake cold, especially in glass cups, but it may be warmed. To store sake, you may keep it in a dry, warm place before opening, but after opening it should be kept cool and the top should be replaced with a secure barrier. Sake is not meant to be aged, so you should drink the majority of the bottle or cask on one occasion as to save it from spoiling. But don't let all the rules scare you away from sake, remember to have fun with it and enjoy its uniqueness!

The best way to heat sake is by placing the sake container in a bath of warm water. This allows the sake to heat slowly and preserves the flavor. Never place the sake in the microwave.
