The development of sake

Since the Meiji Restoration Movement in Japan in the second half of the 19th century, the quality of sake in Japan has gradually declined, especially during the Second World War, Japanese wine merchants added a large amount of edible alcohol to sake to increase the amount of wine production and reap huge profits, which eclipsed the unique flavor of sake.

Therefore, the old Japanese call this inferior sake "the wine in troubled times" and praise the original pure Japanese sake as "the wine of peace". Because the sake brewing industry was influenced by the "troubled times" in history, which left a bad impression on Japanese consumers, and the new generation of Japanese advocated drinking beer and spirits, the sales volume of sake declined year by year.

Today, although the quality of Japanese sake has been restored to its original level, and the quality of products has been continuously improved by using modern brewing technology and equipment, its products only account for 15% of the sales volume of Japanese liquor market.
