DESCRIPTION 

Dassai 39 is a refined and captivating Junmai Daiginjo, perfectly expressing the modern and elegant style of the prestigious Dassai brewery. Made exclusively from premium Yamada Nishiki rice, polished down to 39% of its original size, it reveals an intense and inviting bouquet with notes of ripe fruit, peach, apple, Japanese melon, and delicate floral and citrus nuances.

On the palate, it is smooth, juicy and harmonious, with a clean, velvety sweetness beautifully balanced by freshness and elegance. The flavour develops with remarkable finesse, leading to a bright, persistent and pleasantly refreshing finish.

Richer and more complex than Dassai 45, yet exceptionally balanced and approachable, Dassai 39 is the ideal choice for anyone wishing to discover a superior Junmai Daiginjo.

Produced in Yamaguchi Prefecture, it is perfect for celebrating a special occasion, as a prestigious gift, or as an elegant accompaniment to a refined dinner. Serve chilled, preferably in a wine glass, to fully appreciate its aromatic richness.

FOOD PAIRING 

Ideal with sushi, sashimi, fish tartare, shellfish, seafood, white fish and delicate white-meat dishes. It also pairs beautifully with fresh cheeses, refined vegetarian cuisine and mildly spiced Asian dishes.

Excellent as an elegant aperitif or as an accompaniment throughout an entire meal.

In Japanese cuisine: nigiri, sashimi, light tempura, scallops, fresh tofu, grilled fish and delicately seasoned wagyu.
