Vintage Reputation
Dassai 23 is polished to 23% with Yamada Nishiki rice, one of the world most refined junmai daiginjo, representing the pinnacle of Japanese sake craft.
Tasting Notes
Crystal clear, colorless, lustrous as a water mirror.
White peach, pear, lychee, white flowers, honey — exquisitely delicate, fresh as a spring garden.
Silky smooth entry, delicate sweetness, gentle acidity, lingering fruit aroma, mineral coolness on the finish — impeccably clean.

Winemaker Notes
Asahi Shuzo president Hiroshi Sakurai noted that the challenge of 23% polishing ratio lies in the extreme time and skill required — less than a quarter of each gram of rice remains.
