  We bought this wine to pair with sea urchin omakase. unfortunately, this wine does not go well with sea urchin. However, it goes quite well with salmon and sweet shrimp sashimi.
  This wine is very clean. A little bit sweetness on the palate. Hints of melon and pine apple. Compared to wine, the alcohol is considerably high on the palate due to the light body.
  Overall, I’m not a fan of this wine.

  Ever so well mannered and a great all rounder. Creamy , polished , soft but not a neutral Sake and definitely has presence. We chose it to pair classic Chinese dishes and just worked so well.

  N.V. Asahi Shuzo Dassai '45' Junmai Daiginjo Sake. Paired with sashimi lunch of sea bream, scallop and fatty tuna. Scent of honeydew melon and stone fruit. Quite sweet and floral with some crunchy melon, almost like off-dry Chenin Blanc. Not bad at all. 89+
