Dassai 23 Junmai Daiginjo

Dassai Blue “50”
Dassai Blue 50 is produced at a dedicated facility in New York's Hudson Valley, representing Dassai's first sake brewed entirely outside Japan. Made with Yamadanishiki rice and local spring water, it delivers a fruit-forward profile with pineapple, lemon, and cantaloupe notes. The slight saline finish adds a dimension that separates it from the Japanese Dassai range.
