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. If you like having nothing but the best, you??ll love drinking Dassai 23.
The first sake to have achieved such a degree of polishing and purity. Behind a milky soft first nose, a slightly powdered (rice powder) bouquet of flowers (peony, iris) emerges. On the palate, it strikes incredible complexity, oscillating between candy (praline, vanilla, caramel) and fresh (white flowers, crunchy pear) aromatics, its length is reminiscent of world-class wine. Dassai 23 can be appreciated for itself or as a gastronomic sake of high class that deserves dedicated pairing. Well suited for light canapés, vegetable and refreshing dishes
