It is a type of rice wine similar to sake, but with a lower alcohol content and higher sugar content.[1] The sugar content is a complex carbohydrate that forms naturally during the fermentation process; no sugars are added. The alcohol content is further lowered when the liquid is heated.

Three types of mirin are common. The first is hon mirin (literally: true mirin),[2] which contains about 14% alcohol and is produced by a 40- to 60-day mashing (saccharification) process.[3][4] The second is shio mirin, which contains alcohol as low as 1.5% to avoid alcohol tax.[5] The third is shin mirin (literally: new mirin),[6] or mirin-fu chomiryo (literally: mirin-like seasoning),[7] which contains less than 1% alcohol, yet retains the same flavor.
