Description

本発明は、発泡性清酒の製造方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a method for producing sparkling sake.

従来、発泡性清酒の製造方法に関し、例えば、特許文献1~5に示すような、清酒とにごり清酒とを混合し、密閉容器内で二次発酵させる方法がある。 Conventionally, there are methods for producing sparkling sake, such as those shown in Patent Documents 1 to 5, in which sake and cloudy sake are mixed and subjected to secondary fermentation in a closed container.

特開2009-089663号公報JP2009-089663A WO2009/048180号公報WO2009/048180 publication 特開2017-184656号公報Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2017-184656 特開2018-174709号公報Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2018-174709 特開2018-174910号公報JP2018-174910A

上記特許文献に開示される発泡性清酒の製造方法(以下、「従来法」という。)により得られる発泡性清酒は、通常の清酒に単に炭酸ガスを入れただけのものという印象を受けるものや、甘さ若しくは酸味を増強した清酒に炭酸ガスが入っているだけのものという印象を受けるものが散見され、酒質のバランスが良くないと感じられるものが多い。 The sparkling sake obtained by the sparkling sake manufacturing method disclosed in the above patent document (hereinafter referred to as the "conventional method") may give the impression that it is simply adding carbon dioxide gas to ordinary sake. However, there are some cases where one gets the impression that the sake has been enhanced with sweetness or sourness and just contains carbon dioxide gas, and many of them give the impression that the quality of the sake is not well-balanced.

さらに、従来法においては、二次発酵させるベース酒(清酒とにごり清酒とを混合した混合清酒)中のにごり清酒の割合が多く、そのため、前記ベース酒に多くのにごり成分(主に米分や酵母)が含まれるため、二次発酵により得られた発泡性清酒中にも多くのにごり成分が含まれ、このにごり成分を除去しクリアな発泡性清酒とするまでに多くの時間を要し、効率よく生産できない問題もあった。 Furthermore, in the conventional method, the proportion of cloudy sake in the base sake (mixed sake that is a mixture of sake and cloudy sake) to be subjected to secondary fermentation is high, so that the base sake contains many cloudy components (mainly rice and cloudy sake). Because it contains yeast), the sparkling sake obtained through secondary fermentation also contains a lot of cloudy components, and it takes a lot of time to remove these cloudy components and make clear sparkling sake. There were also problems that made it impossible to produce efficiently.

本発明は、このような従来法の現状に鑑みなされたものであり、芳醇な甘さと爽やかな酸味を有し、日本酒感を有しながらも酒質バランスが良く飲み易い発泡性清酒を得ることができ、しかも、にごり成分が少なく効率よく発泡性清酒を製造することができる発泡性清酒の製造方法を提供する。 The present invention has been made in view of the current state of conventional methods, and aims to obtain sparkling sake that has mellow sweetness and refreshing sourness, has a Japanese sake feel, and is well-balanced in quality and easy to drink.

好適と考える本発明の実施形態を、図面に基づいて本発明の作用を示して簡単に説明する。 Embodiments of the present invention that are considered suitable will be briefly described by showing the effects of the present invention based on the drawings.

本発明は、少量のにごり清酒と、このにごり清酒に対して多量の第1の清酒とを混合して第1の混合清酒を得、さらに、この第1の混合清酒中の酵母(発酵活性を有する酵母)を増殖させるから、第1の混合清酒は、にごり成分が少なく、酵母が多いものとなる。 In the present invention, a first mixed sake is obtained by mixing a small amount of cloudy sake and a large amount of the first sake with respect to the cloudy sake, and further, the yeast (fermentation activity) in the first mixed sake is Since the first mixed sake contains less cloudy components and more yeast, the first mixed sake contains less cloudy components and more yeast.

すなわち、二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)中のにごり成分を少なくするには、にごり成分を含むにごり清酒の混合量を少なくすれば良いが、にごり清酒の量を少なくした場合、酵母も少なくなり、酵母不足により十分な二次発酵が行われず、所望の発泡性清酒が得られないという問題が生じてしまう。 In other words, in order to reduce the cloudy components in the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) that has been subjected to secondary fermentation, it is sufficient to reduce the amount of the cloudy sake containing the cloudy components. In this case, the amount of yeast decreases, and sufficient secondary fermentation is not performed due to the lack of yeast, resulting in a problem that the desired sparkling sake cannot be obtained.

また、にごり成分である米分が少なく、且つ、酵母が多いにごり清酒を用いることも考えられるが、にごり清酒は、一般的に粗漉しにより得られるものであるから、前記のように、米分を少なく、酵母を多くするように漉すことは難しく、前記のような米分が少なく酵母を多く含むにごり清酒を用いることは、実際のところ厄介である。これは、清酒に酵母のみを追加することが酒税法上禁止されていることも原因である。 It is also possible to use cloudy sake with less rice content, which is a cloudy component, and a lot of yeast, but since cloudy sake is generally obtained by coarse straining, as mentioned above, the rice content is It is difficult to strain sake in such a way that it contains less rice and more yeast, and it is actually troublesome to use cloudy sake that contains less rice and more yeast. This is also due to the fact that adding only yeast to sake is prohibited under the Liquor Tax Law.

そこで、本発明者等は、にごり成分である米分が少なく、しかしながら、二次発酵に必要な十分な量の酵母を含むにごり清酒(第1の混合清酒)を得るため、鋭意研究を重ね、前記したように、少量のにごり清酒と、このにごり清酒に対して多量の第1の清酒とを混合して得られた第1の混合清酒中の酵母を培養し増殖させることで、米分が少なく酵母が多いにごり清酒(第1の混合清酒)の取得方法を見出した。 Therefore, the present inventors conducted extensive research in order to obtain cloudy sake (first mixed sake) that has a small amount of rice, which is a cloudy component, but contains a sufficient amount of yeast necessary for secondary fermentation. As mentioned above, by culturing and multiplying the yeast in the first mixed sake obtained by mixing a small amount of cloudy sake with a large amount of the first sake, the rice content can be reduced. We have discovered a method for obtaining cloudy sake (first mixed sake) with less yeast and more yeast.

本発明は、このようなにごり成分である米分が少なく酵母が多い第1の混合清酒と、上槽した第2の清酒を混合して第2の混合清酒を得、この第2の混合清酒を容器に充填し、この容器内で第2の混合清酒を二次発酵させるから、酵母不足による二次発酵不足が生じず、第2の混合清酒を適正に二次発酵させることができ、芳醇な甘さと爽やかな酸味を有し、日本酒感を有しながらも酒質バランスが良く飲み易い発泡性清酒を得ることができる。 The present invention provides a second mixed sake by mixing a first mixed sake with less rice content, which is a cloudy component, and a higher yeast content, and a second sake that has been tanked. is filled into a container and the second mixed sake is subjected to secondary fermentation in this container, so there is no shortage of secondary fermentation due to lack of yeast, and the second mixed sake can be properly secondary fermented, resulting in a rich and mellow taste. It is possible to obtain sparkling sake that has sweetness and refreshing sourness, has a Japanese sake feel, has a well-balanced quality, and is easy to drink.

さらに、本発明は、二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)は、にごり成分が少ないものとなるから、この二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)を短時間でクリアな状態、すなわち、二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)中のにごり成分(主に米分及び酵母)を短時間で回収・除去することができ、生産性が向上し、さらに、前記のとおりにごり成分が少ないことで、にごり成分を容器から除去する作業が容易になり、これにより、にごり成分を除去する作業における目減り量が低減され、歩留まりも向上する。 Furthermore, since the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) that has been subjected to secondary fermentation has less cloudy components, the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) that has been subjected to secondary fermentation can be shortened. In other words, the cloudy components (mainly rice and yeast) in the secondary fermented second mixed sake (sparkling sake) can be recovered and removed in a short time, increasing productivity. Furthermore, since there are fewer cloudy components as described above, the work of removing the cloudy components from the container becomes easier, thereby reducing the amount of loss in the work of removing the cloudy components and improving the yield.

本発明の具体的な実施例1について図1~図3に基づいて説明する。 A concrete example 1 of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 1 to 3.

本実施例は、酵母を含有する少量のにごり清酒(懸濁清酒とも言う。酵母を含み、発酵活性のある醪を荒漉しして得られたもの。)と、上槽した清酒であって糖分を多量に含有した第1の清酒(酵母非含有)とを混合した第1の混合清酒において前記酵母を増殖させ、続いて、この第1の混合清酒に上槽した第2の清酒を混合して第2の混合清酒を得、続いて、この第2の混合清酒を容器に充填し、この容器内において前記酵母により二次発酵させて発泡性清酒を得る発泡性清酒の製造方法である。 This example uses a small amount of cloudy sake containing yeast (also called suspension sake, obtained by roughly straining moromi that contains yeast and has fermentation activity) and a sake that has been fermented and has a sugar content. The yeast is grown in a first mixed sake that is mixed with a first sake containing a large amount of (yeast-free), and then a second sake poured in a tank is mixed with this first mixed sake. This is a method for producing sparkling sake, in which a second mixed sake is obtained, followed by filling a container with the second mixed sake, and performing secondary fermentation with the yeast in the container to obtain sparkling sake.

具体的には、本実施例は、図1に示すように、にごり清酒と第1の清酒とを混合(混和)して第1の混合清酒を得る第一混合工程と、第1の混合清酒中の酵母を増殖させる酵母増殖工程と、酵母を増殖させた第1の混合清酒と第2の清酒とを混合(混和)して第2の混合清酒を得る第二混合工程と、第2の混合清酒を容器に充填する充填工程と、容器に充填した第2の混合清酒を容器内で二次発酵させる二次発酵工程と、二次発酵させた容器内の第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)に対して殺菌処理を施す殺菌工程と、二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)中のにごり成分を回収・除去するにごり成分除去工程と、にごり成分を除去した際に目減り(欠減)した分を補充する補充工程と、打栓により容器を密閉する打栓工程とを含むものである。 Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, this example includes a first mixing step of mixing (mixing) cloudy sake and a first sake to obtain a first mixed sake; a yeast propagation step in which the yeast in the yeast is propagated; a second mixing step in which the first mixed sake in which yeast has been propagated and the second sake are mixed (mixed) to obtain a second mixed sake; A filling process in which mixed sake is filled into a container, a secondary fermentation process in which the second mixed sake filled in the container is subjected to secondary fermentation in the container, and a second mixed sake in the container that has been subjected to secondary fermentation (sparkling) A sterilization process in which the sterilization process is applied to the second fermented sake (sparkling sake), a turbidity removal process in which the turbidity components are collected and removed from the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) that has undergone secondary fermentation, and a sterilization process in which the turbidity components are removed. This process includes a replenishment step for replenishing the amount that has been lost, and a stoppering step for sealing the container.

以下、本実施例の発泡性清酒の製造方法について、図1に示すフローチャートに沿って前記工程ごとに具体的に説明する。 Hereinafter, the method for producing sparkling sake of this example will be specifically explained for each step according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

<第一混合工程>
第一混合工程は、酵母を含有するにごり清酒と、上槽した第1の清酒とを混合(混和)して第1の混合清酒を得る工程である。
<First mixing step>
The first mixing step is a step of mixing (mixing) the cloudy sake containing yeast and the first sake in the upper tank to obtain the first mixed sake.

具体的には、本実施例においては、この第一混合工程で、にごり清酒と第1の清酒とを、にごり清酒:第1の清酒=1:約5000(質量比)、具体的には、1:4999の比率で混合(混和)し、第1の混合清酒を得ている。 Specifically, in this example, in this first mixing step, the cloudy sake and the first sake are mixed at a ratio of cloudy sake: first sake = 1: about 5000 (mass ratio), specifically, The first mixed sake is obtained by mixing (blending) at a ratio of 1:4999.

この第一混合工程で用いるにごり清酒は、図2に示すような常法の製法により得られたものを用いており、具体的には、酵母による発酵活性を有し、成分値が、アルコール度数:5%~15%,日本酒度:-50~-30,酸度:3~8,アミノ酸度:0.5~1.5のにごり清酒を用いている。 The cloudy sake used in this first mixing step is obtained by a conventional manufacturing method as shown in Figure 2. Specifically, it has fermentation activity by yeast, and the component values are low in alcohol content. :5% to 15%, sake content: -50 to -30, acidity: 3 to 8, and amino acid content: 0.5 to 1.5.

また、第1の清酒は、図3に示すような常法の製法により得られたものを用いており、具体的には、成分値が、アルコール度数:3%~4%,日本酒度:-15~-5,酸度:0.5~1.0,アミノ酸度:0.1~0.5,グルコース濃度:4%~7%の清酒を用いている。 In addition, the first sake was obtained by a conventional manufacturing method as shown in Figure 3, and specifically, the component values were: alcohol content: 3% to 4%, sake content: - The sake used is 15 to -5, acidity: 0.5 to 1.0, amino acid content: 0.1 to 0.5, and glucose concentration: 4% to 7%.

また、第1の清酒は、リンゴ酸高生産性酵母を使用し、さらに、グルコース濃度が高い清酒となっているため、一般的な清酒と比較してフルーティーで甘みの強い清酒となっている。 In addition, the first sake uses malic acid-producing yeast and has a high glucose concentration, so it is fruitier and has a stronger sweetness than ordinary sake.

前記のようにして得られる第1の混合清酒は、第1の清酒に対するにごり清酒の混合比率が極めて小さいため(第1の清酒に対するにごり清酒の混合量が極めて少ないため)、成分値が、アルコール度数:3%~4%,日本酒度:-15~-5,酸度:0.5~1.0,アミノ酸度:0.1~0.5と第1の清酒とほぼ同等であり、さらに、米分及び酵母の含有量が非常に少ない清酒(混合清酒)となる。 The first mixed sake obtained in the above manner has an extremely low mixing ratio of cloudy sake to the first sake (because the mixing amount of cloudy sake to the first sake is extremely small), so the component value is higher than alcohol. Alcohol content: 3% to 4%, sake content: -15 to -5, acidity: 0.5 to 1.0, amino acid content: 0.1 to 0.5, which is almost the same as the first sake, and furthermore, The resulting sake (mixed sake) has a very low rice and yeast content.

<酵母増殖工程>
酵母増殖工程は、第一混合工程で得た第1の混合清酒中の酵母を増殖させ、二次発酵に必要な酵母量にする工程である。
<Yeast propagation process>
The yeast propagation step is a step in which the yeast in the first mixed sake obtained in the first mixing step is propagated to reach the amount of yeast required for secondary fermentation.

すなわち、第一混合工程で得た第1の混合清酒は、前記のとおり、第1の清酒に対するにごり清酒の混合比率が極めて小さいため、にごり成分である米分が極めて少なくなるが、米分と同様、酵母の量も少なくなっており、そのような少ない酵母量では、適正な二次発酵を行うことができない。本酵母増殖工程は、この酵母量が少ない第1の混合清酒において、第1の混合清酒中の酵母を培養し増殖させ、この第1の混合清酒中の酵母を適正な二次発酵を行うことができる適正な酵母量にする工程である。 In other words, as mentioned above, the first mixed sake obtained in the first mixing step has an extremely small mixing ratio of cloudy sake to the first sake, so the rice content, which is a cloudy component, is extremely small. Similarly, the amount of yeast is decreasing, and with such a small amount of yeast, proper secondary fermentation cannot be performed. This yeast breeding step involves culturing and multiplying the yeast in the first mixed sake with a small amount of yeast, and performing appropriate secondary fermentation of the yeast in the first mixed sake. This is the process of adjusting the amount of yeast to an appropriate level.

具体的には、この酵母増殖工程では、第1の混合清酒を約30℃の温度環境下で約5日間保管し、この第1の混合清酒中の酵母を培養し増殖させている。 Specifically, in this yeast propagation step, the first mixed sake is stored in a temperature environment of about 30° C. for about 5 days, and the yeast in the first mixed sake is cultured and multiplied.

詳しくは、本実施例は、第一混合工程に用いる第1の混合清酒を前記のとおり一般的な清酒よりも糖分を多く含んだ清酒を用いており、したがって、第1の混合清酒も多くの糖分を含むものとなっている。この酵母増殖工程では、この第1の混合清酒に含まれている多くの糖分を栄養源として酵母の増殖が行われる(第一混合工程の第1の清酒として一般的な糖分の少ない清酒を用いた場合、第1の混合清酒に含まれる糖分も少なくなり、栄養源が足りずに酵母の増殖が進まず、二次発酵に必要な適正な酵母量にならない。)。なお、前記温度環境及び保管日数は、第一混合工程におけるにごり清酒と第1の清酒との混合比率により適宜変更可能なものとする。 Specifically, in this example, the first mixed sake used in the first mixing step is a sake that contains more sugar than general sake, and therefore the first mixed sake also contains a lot of sugar. It contains sugar. In this yeast multiplication step, yeast multiplies using the large amount of sugar contained in this first mixed sake as a nutrient source (general sake with low sugar content is used as the first sake in the first mixing step). If this happens, the sugar content in the first mixed sake will also decrease, and yeast will not multiply due to insufficient nutritional sources, resulting in an insufficient amount of yeast required for secondary fermentation.) Note that the temperature environment and storage days can be changed as appropriate depending on the mixing ratio of cloudy sake and first sake in the first mixing step.

<第二混合工程>
第二混合工程は、酵母増殖工程で酵母を増殖させた第1の混合清酒と、上槽した第2の清酒とを混合(混和)して第2の混合清酒を得る工程である。
<Second mixing step>
The second mixing step is a step of mixing (mixing) the first mixed sake in which yeast has been grown in the yeast breeding step and the second sake in the upper tank to obtain a second mixed sake.

具体的には、この第二混合工程では、酵母増殖後の第1の混合清酒と第2の清酒とを、第1の混合清酒:第2の清酒=15:85~25:75(質量比)、具体的には、20:80の比率で混合(混和)して、第2の混合清酒を得ている。 Specifically, in this second mixing step, the first mixed sake after yeast proliferation and the second sake are mixed at a ratio of first mixed sake: second sake = 15:85 to 25:75 (mass ratio ), specifically, mixed (blended) at a ratio of 20:80 to obtain the second mixed sake.

この第二混合工程で用いる第2の清酒は、第1の清酒と同様、図3に示すような常法の製法により得られたものを用いており、第1の清酒とは、加水量が異なるものである。 Like the first sake, the second sake used in this second mixing step is obtained by the conventional manufacturing method as shown in Figure 3, and the amount of water added is different from the first sake. They are different.

具体的には、第2の清酒は、成分値が、アルコール度数:9%~12%,日本酒度:-50~-30,酸度:2.0~4.0,アミノ酸度:0.5~1.5,グルコース濃度:4%~7%の清酒であり、また、第1の清酒と同様に、一般的な清酒と比較してフルーティーで甘みの強い清酒となっている。 Specifically, the second sake has component values such as alcohol content: 9% to 12%, sake content: -50 to -30, acidity: 2.0 to 4.0, and amino acid content: 0.5 to 1.5. This sake has a glucose concentration of 4% to 7%, and like the first sake, it has a fruitier and sweeter taste compared to general sake.

前記のようにして得られる第2の混合清酒は、成分値が、アルコール度数:9%~12%,日本酒度:-50~-30,酸度:2.0~4.0,アミノ酸度:0.5~1.5と第2の清酒とほぼ同等であり、また、二次発酵に必要な酵母を適正量含みながらも、にごり成分(特に米分)が非常に少ない清酒(混合清酒)となる。 The second mixed sake obtained as described above has component values: alcohol content: 9% to 12%, sake content: -50 to -30, acidity: 2.0 to 4.0, and amino acid content: 0. .5 to 1.5, which is almost the same as the second type of sake, and also contains a suitable amount of yeast necessary for secondary fermentation, but has very little cloudy components (especially rice) (mixed sake).

It removes the accumulated cloudy components and leaves the sparkling sake in the bottle in a clear state.

より具体的には、0℃~5℃の温度環境下で30日~45日間、二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)の入った瓶を、瓶口が下を向くように逆さ状態にし、途中、適宜なタイミングで瓶を揺動させながら、瓶内のにごり成分を瓶口側、具体的には、瓶口を密栓している栓(王冠)の裏面に設けられた凹部内)に沈降、集積させて回収し、その後、開栓し、にごり成分を瓶外に排出している。 More specifically, a bottle containing a second mixed sake (sparkling sake) that has been subjected to secondary fermentation in a temperature environment of 0°C to 5°C for 30 to 45 days is placed so that the mouth of the bottle faces downward. Hold the bottle upside down, and shake the bottle at appropriate times during the process to remove the cloudy components in the bottle from the bottle mouth side, specifically, the bottle on the back of the stopper (crown) that seals the bottle mouth. After that, the bottle is opened and the cloudy components are discharged out of the bottle.

本実施例では、にごり成分の回収量が従来法の約1/250量と非常に少なくなるため、このにごり成分を除去する際の瓶内の第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)の目減り量(欠減量)を瓶内の二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)量の約1%と極めて少量に抑えることができる(従来法の目減り量は約30%)。 In this example, the amount of turbid components recovered is very small, approximately 1/250 of the amount of the conventional method, so the amount of loss of the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) in the bottle when this turbid component is removed (loss amount) can be suppressed to an extremely small amount of about 1% of the amount of the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) subjected to secondary fermentation in the bottle (the amount lost in the conventional method is about 30%).

<補充工程>
補充工程は、前記にごり成分除去工程において、にごり成分を除去した際に目減りした分の発泡性清酒を補充する工程である。
<Replenishment process>
The replenishment step is a step of replenishing the amount of sparkling sake that was lost when the turbid components were removed in the turbid component removal step.

具体的には、この補充工程では、にごり成分が除去されたクリアな発泡性清酒を、瓶内に充填しており、本実施例では、前記のように目減り量が非常に少ないため、補充量(充填量)も極めて少ないものとなっている。 Specifically, in this replenishment process, clear sparkling sake from which cloudy components have been removed is filled into the bottle, and in this example, the amount of depletion is very small as described above, so (filling amount) is also extremely small.

<打栓工程>
打栓工程は、瓶内の炭酸が抜けないように、打栓により瓶を再密閉する工程である。

以上のような各工程を含む本実施例の作用効果について以下に説明する。 The effects of this embodiment including the above-described steps will be described below.

本実施例は、にごり成分である米分が少なく、且つ、酵母が多い第1の混合清酒と、上槽した第2の清酒を混合して第2の混合清酒を得、この第2の混合清酒を容器に充填し、この容器内で第2の混合清酒を二次発酵させるから、酵母不足による二次発酵不足が生じず、第2の混合清酒を適正に二次発酵させることができ、芳醇な甘さと爽やかな酸味を有し、日本酒感を有しながらも酒質バランスが良く飲み易い発泡性清酒を得ることができる。 In this example, a first mixed sake containing a small amount of rice, which is a cloudy component, and a large amount of yeast, is mixed with a second sake that has been tanked to obtain a second mixed sake. Since sake is filled into a container and the second mixed sake is subjected to secondary fermentation in this container, there is no shortage of secondary fermentation due to lack of yeast, and the second mixed sake can be properly secondary fermented. It is possible to obtain sparkling sake that has mellow sweetness and refreshing sourness, has the taste of Japanese sake, has a well-balanced quality, and is easy to drink.

また、本実施例は、第2の混合清酒を得る際に第2の清酒と混合する第1の混合清酒中のにごり成分が非常に少ないから、二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)中のにごり成分も非常に少なく、したがって、この二次発酵させた第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)を短時間でクリアな状態にすることができ、生産性が向上し、さらに、前記のとおりにごり成分が少ないことで、にごり成分を瓶から除去する作業も容易になり、これにより、にごり成分を除去する際の第2の混合清酒(発泡性清酒)の目減り量を大幅に低減することができるので、発泡性清酒の補充量が少なくて済み、従来法に比べて歩留まりが大幅に向上する(約30%アップ)画期的な発泡性清酒の製造方法となる。 In addition, in this example, since there is very little cloudy component in the first mixed sake that is mixed with the second mixed sake when obtaining the second mixed sake, the second mixed sake (foamed sake) that has been subjected to secondary fermentation is used. There are very few cloudy components in the sparkling sake), so the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) that has been subjected to secondary fermentation can be brought to a clear state in a short time, improving productivity. As mentioned above, since there are fewer cloudy components, it is easier to remove the cloudy components from the bottle, and this greatly reduces the amount of loss of the second mixed sake (sparkling sake) when removing the cloudy components. Since the amount of sparkling sake can be reduced, the amount of sparkling sake to be replenished is small, and the yield is significantly improved (approximately 30% increase) compared to conventional methods, resulting in an innovative method for producing sparkling sake.
