A sake to brighten your life,

not to drive sales or for you to get drunk

Here at Asahi Shuzo, we craft sake to brighten your life, not to drive sales or for you to get drunk.

We strive to create the highest quality sake for our customers to simply enjoy its taste and flavors, it isn't intended to be a product of mass consumption. Dassai is meant to be a way to a pleasant lifestyle. At same time, we do not want Dassai to be a sake so special, so rare nobody could enjoy it: Dassai should be available for anyone to enjoy.

These days, sake producers and liquor stores tend to focus excessively on quick sales strategies and / or overwhelming marketing campaigns which, in turn, make them lose focus of the customer's authentic need: to enjoy a tasty sake.

It is because we craft a high quality sake that we want to share it with everyone around the world. We strive to keep strong partners to introduce Dassai to every one of you.

This ultra-deluxe daiginjo sake has had over three-quarters of the exterior grain polished away to yield a truly remarkable sake. There are very few breweries that have ever attempted to create a sake using rice that has been so highly polished, or even possess the technology to make it possible. In fact, Asahi Shuzo Company makes an even more premium Dassai that has been polished even further than this!

The Dassai “23” has fruity and confectionary aromas with a touch of minerality. There are scents of green pear, pineapple, vanilla and angel food cake, with just a touch of petrichor. The wet stone minerality extends into the taste as well, allowing flavors of muscat grape and marshmallow to expand across the palate. The Dassai “23” is extremely smooth and light. Being that it is such a unique and extraordinary expression of sake, in my opinion, it is best enjoyed on its own as an aperitif. Allow the sensations that come from this brew to stand alone.
