Distilled alcohol refers to alcohol distilled from starchy or sugary sources. Adding distilled alcohol to the moromi, or fermenting mash of rice and malted rice, results in fragrant sake with a crisp finish. The distilled alcohol also inhibits the growth of lactic acid bacteria that can cause sake to deteriorate.
