Dassai Sake 45 Nigori 720ML HT Nine months in oak barrelsThis is a nigori that reflects Dassais ever present elegance. Being a junmai daiginjo, this one is slightly less saturated with sake lees (the rice solids in the bottle) compared to other nigori. On the nose youll find the faintest hint of muscat, but where this sake shines is its texture and flavor. Its light, fine grain texture accompanies bright and juicy balanced flavors, resulting in a slight sweetness.
