“Dassai will please any crowd. For me its a classic. The 45 blows away any first time sake drinker. It gets more subtle with the Semaibuai, and the 23 is sure to impress anyone.”
“Each of the three are absolutely beautiful. When I visited Japan in 2022 Dassai 45 was available everywhere as a premium Sake. . I am told that Dassai 39 and 23 are even more "polished". This is the 10th time I've ordered this set. No other Sake is this delicious.”
“Was amazing. They recommended drinking it chilled. I tried it room temp, chilled and warm. All 3 had a different flavor profile. I actually preferred it warm”
“Dassai is a very popular premium
pure rice 純米 saké both in Japan and in the USA. This is deservedly so, because of its smooth, easy-drinking taste. With Dassai there are no off putting aromas only fruit forward scents and palate pleasing flavors.
It is soft and “clean” tasting. Another descriptive term applied to this wonderful libation might be “light.” There are no heavy, dank corners to this brew. This is a perfect introduction to premium, “modern” saké. Occasionally when I am serving saké at a tasting event someone will turn up there nose and quip, “Oh, I’ve tried sakè, and I don’t like it.” They can frequently be won over after sampling Dassai. Terrific for cautious newcomers and relaxing and comfortable for the more experienced. This is a real crowd pleaser. Buy it. Try it. Enjoy it.”
