Dassai 45 is made using Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 45% of its original size, which results in a clean and crisp taste. It has a delicate floral aroma, a hint of sweetness, and a smooth finish. It is best served chilled and pairs well with light dishes such as salads, seafood, and Japanese cuisine.

As a larger bottle, Dassai 45 1.8L is a great option for those who plan to host events or for those who want to enjoy the sake over multiple occasions. It also makes for a beautiful display and a great gift for sake enthusiasts.
