Even today, in the Niiname-sai festival (ceremonial offering by the Emperor of newly-harvested rice to the deities) of the Imperial family, the two kinds of sake of shiroki (white sake) and kuroki (black sake) which are brewed in such ancient methods are served.
現在でも、皇室における新嘗祭（にいなめさい）では、このような古代の製法で醸造した白酒(しろき)（しろき）、黒酒（くろき）という二種類の酒が供えられる。
