Tag: Sake consumption

According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2020-2025), moderate alcohol consumption is defined as two drinks or less per day for men and one drink or less per day for women. When it comes to sake, defining an unhealthy amount requires understanding serving sizes and the impact of alcohol on the body.

According to Japanese health authorities, the moderate, healthy amount of sake is around 350ml per day, a fraction of a standard 720ml bottle, which answers the question: is a bottle of sake too much for one person? The standard 'yon-go' (4-go) bottle, containing 720ml, is typically intended for sharing, not solo consumption.
