Tasting Notes

This sake opens with delicate aromas of white peach, ripe papaya, and nectarine, followed by soft floral and jasmine notes. On the palate, it delivers a gentle sweetness balanced by crisp acidity, a refined texture with a touch of spritz, and a whisper-soft finish with subtle minerality. Best served chilled (41–54 °F / 5–12 °C) in a wide wine glass to highlight its aromatic complexity. Dassai Blue Type 35 pairs beautifully with sushi, sashimi, caviar, grilled fish or chicken, steak, and olive-based dishes, making it an excellent match for global cuisines and modern dining.

Overview

A landmark achievement in US sake, Dassai Blue Type 35 beautifully merges American terroir with Japanese craftsmanship. It is an American-crafted Junmai Daiginjo that showcases Dassai’s dedication to domestic sake production. This exceptional brew is made with pristine Hudson Valley spring water and Arkansas-grown Yamada Nishiki rice, which was purpose-reactivated from seeds brought directly by Dassai. Polished down to 35%, it offers a clean, fruity, and subtly sparkling Daiginjo experience that honors both tradition and innovation.
