Dassai Sake Masterclass (Praelum Wine Bistro): Colourless and bright. Aromas with a cool minty, even mineral start, then the slight melon sweetness, then chestnuts. Medium light body, but very intense in flavours, whilst silky mouthfeel, with some rose and lavender, chestnuts, then even a bit of chives and then nutmeg. It is nevertheless very enjoyable, but there seems to have quite a strong spicy umami hint which seems to be low quality in the books... hmm

From 300mL dated 2022.04 Lush full daiginjo. Much fuller bodied than expected White grape, white flower and honeysuckle flavors A nice easy intro to more highly polished daiginjos

There's no other sake that has ever made me say "absolutely perfect". It's absurd how light and smooth this sake is. The subtle taste has very little of the classic rice wine notes, but lingers for quite a bit after taking a sip. Best served slightly chilled.

Clear with slight amber hue. Fresh, light, balanced and dry. A smooth, mood-lifting sake for haute omakase sushi.
