The popular Dassai “50” was replaced by Dassai “45” in 2019 by polishing the rice a bit more. And even though it is the most affordable of their lineup, it belongs to the highest premium sake category with no brewer's alcohol added.
Delicate, fruity & aromatic. This premium saké is semi-dry with a suble sweetness and creamy mouthfeel. It is easy to drink and extremely popular among both aficionados and those new to saké.
The "45" in its name refers to the rice polishing ratio, which means that the rice used in making this sake has been polished down to 45% of its original size. Clean and Crisp, Smooth and Well-Balanced: One of the hallmarks of Dassai 45 is its smooth and well-balanced taste. Love its harmony between sweetness, acidity, and umami, which makes it enjoyable on its own or as a complement to various dishes.

Mr Sakurai envisioned creating the world's finest sake, not just to survive but to redefine the industry's standards. He turned Dassai into a single varietal of sake rice: the Yamada Nishiki rice. This rice, known for its exceptional starch content and its ability to absorb water, became the heart of Dassai's sake. Mr Sakurai took it a step further by milling down the rice to only 23% of its original size, an unprecedented move that showcased the brand's dedication to purity and excellence. Here came their flagship product, Dassai 23.

A playful straw-lemon in colour with medium-fine perlage and a persistent mousse, this sparkling sake shows lively notes of white peaches and honeysuckle that are underscored by hints of toasted almonds and minerality. On the palate, this sake is demi-sec with a perfect texture and zesty acidity that unfold over a lengthy finish.

Also known as "Good Luck" Daiginjo. Made by the Doi Brewery of Kakegawa, Shizuoka. The Doi Sake Brewery was established in 1872.
Translation From The Producer's Website
"Our efforts in daiginjo sake go back about 50 years. At the time, quantity was valued over quality, and low price over quality, but we were one of the first to work on improving the quality of sake, and have come to the point where people say, "When you think of good fortune, you think of daiginjo." We carefully and slowly polish our own Yamada Nishiki rice from Hyogo Prefecture's Special A region. The mash is brewed slowly and carefully at low temperatures over a long period of time, bringing out the delicate flavor of the rice. A very small amount of brewing alcohol is added at the end to create a refreshing taste. Many people give daiginjo as a gift."
