Deskripsi
The Dassai 23 is an aromatic, fruity sake that draws you in from the very first sip. An aroma of peach and melon wafts through the nostrils, setting the scene. Savoury notes of chestnut and pine wash the taste buds in glorious fashion. The flavour of peach creeps in slowly, unfurling on the tongue, giving way to a punchy and zesty aftertaste.
There’s a silky texture to the 23 that makes it easy to drink. I’d recommend drinking it chilled or at room temperature. It’s a versatile kind of nihonshu that can be paired with a range of dishes. I paired it with chicken kiev and soy sauce-soaked mushrooms. The savoury qualities of the alcohol contrasted beautifully with the meatiness of the dish. But the Dassai 23 also works well with fish dishes like grilled prawns or sushi.
