Fermented rice wine (4)
I believe the answer is:
sake
'fermented rice wine' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for sake that I've seen before include "Japanese alcoholic drink make from rice" , "Rice drink - for heaven's ____ !" , "Beverage" , "Japanese spirit made from rice" , "For old times' --" .)
