While drinking old sake may not necessarily make you immediately sick, it can affect the taste and quality of the drink, and in some cases, may cause adverse reactions if it has gone bad. Sake should ideally be consumed within 6 months to a year after production, although some aged and premium varieties can be stored for much longer. Mold or bacterial growth, changes in color, or a sour or vinegary taste are signs that the sake has spoiled and should not be consumed. It’s essential to check the expiration date and storage conditions before drinking any sake, especially if it’s been stored for an extended period.
