Dassai Blue Junmai Daiginjo 50
New York, USA

Novice Review (chilled): A much bolder flavor profile among the Dassai line that I’ve tried (Dassai 50, 35). Very fruity, with a nice dose of acidity and sweetness. the only thing that makes me do a double take is this interesting hint of haybale that I get from this drink. I’m not sure if it’s this particular bottle, but the funk is slightly off putting for my tastes.

4.3Novice Review (Chilled): This sake was refreshingly clean with a smoother and less pronounced alcohol taste than Dassai 45. Although a Dassai Blue 50 has bolder flavors, this doesn’t have the “hay-esque” characteristic of the Blue 50 and is a lighter/cleaner drink.

4Dry with a punch that doesn’t burn but reminds you that this drink isn’t here to play. This bottle is a nice departure from some of the sweeter/frutier aromatic styles by featuring a more crisp and sustinct spice profile.

3Being completely honest here… this tastes like the white fungus on Brie cheese.
