In this episode of WSET Flashcards, we focus on one of the most technical and essential topics in the Level 3 syllabus: an overview of sake production.

From rice selection and polishing ratios to kōji making, fermentation starters, parallel fermentation, temperature control, filtration, pasteurisation, and bottling, this episode walks you through how sake is made from start to finish. Each flashcard is designed to reinforce cause-and-effect logic, key figures, and production choices that directly influence style and quality.

This episode is ideal for building a solid mental framework before tasting or revising closer to the exam. Whether you’re studying on the move or revisiting complex processes without a textbook in front of you, these audio flashcards help you retain what actually matters for Level 3.
