Scotland to build country's first sake brewery for Japanese consumers

After a Japanese whisky-maker did the unthinkable and unseated Scotland to take the title of best whisky in the world last year, Scotland, in turn, has announced plans to open the country's first sake brewery.

Scottish beer-maker Arran Brewery has been given the green light to build a sake bottling facility, beer hall, brewing school and Japanese cultural centre on the site of a former primary school after first hatching the plan last year, reported the BBC .
