Dassai Blue “50” Dry
Yamaguchi prefecture
Some like it dry
Dassai Blue Sake Brewery has crafted an alternative version of Dassai Blue “50” to give it a slightly drier impression. Like its progenitor, it balances the brightness of pineapple and lemon with sweet flavors of almond and caramel. But if you try them side by side, you’ll notice a difference in the tasting experience that is the result of an exceptional level of craftsmanship and attention to detail.
