Dassai 23 Junmai Daiginjo Sake 獭祭 二割三分 纯米大吟酿清酒 720ml ほんしゅ さけ

We all know that patience is a virtue, and this sake exemplifies that better than anything else. Widely held as one of the best sake’s around, Dassai 23 pushes the limits of rice polishing.

Getting the rice grains to 23% of their original size takes time, but is well worth it. The fragrance is a bouquet of flowers, delicate, loving.

The flavor washes over your tongue like a gentle waterfall deep in a secluded forest, and trickles away into a long, satisfying finish.

The flavour of peach creeps in slowly, unfurling on the tongue, giving way to a punchy and zesty aftertaste. There’s a silky texture to the 23 that makes it easy to drink.

I’d recommend drinking it chilled or at room temperature. It’s a versatile kind of nihonshu that can be paired with a range of dishes.

If you like having nothing but the best, you’ll love drinking Dassai 23
