Imagine wading through a field of white flowers, the spring breeze tickling your skin, and a succulent mango in your palm. Now open your eyes to find your imagination come to life with Dassai “39.” A skillfully balanced Junmai Daiginjo that brings a rush of fruit flavors to your palate. The rice is milled to just 39%, which gives Dassai “39” its smooth, mellow taste. It’s is practically a dream come true. The nose is fruity with koji rice, apple, honeydew, and strawberry aromas. A very plush sake that is loaded with fruit basket flavors and has a very wine-like acidity presence with a long finish. Chewy, round, and soft, but bright – go figure! Hints of pear, apple, blueberry and honeydew on a fleshy fluid that is lively and velvety.
