Dassai 45
Dassai 45 represents the gateway to the world of Junmai Daiginjo — elegant yet approachable, pure yet full of life. Crafted by Asahi Shuzo from Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 45%, it reflects the brewery’s dedication to precision and purity. The sake exudes balance: vibrant fruit, soft umami, and seamless texture, offering a refreshing introduction to the refined style of Dassai.
Dassai 45 is wonderfully versatile and best served chilled (8–10°C) in a white wine glass to showcase its freshness. Perfect with sushi, sashimi, and seafood carpaccio, it also complements grilled prawns, scallops, or light chicken dishes with citrus or soy glaze. The sake’s clean finish makes it ideal with vegetarian dishes such as tofu, tempura vegetables, or miso-glazed eggplant. For Western pairings, enjoy it with soft cheeses or lemon risotto — its balance and finesse make every pairing harmonious.
