DassaiDASSAI BLUE Type50
ariccy
Otters New York 50% polished rice
Same Japanese Yamadanishiki as Type 23, 14% alc.
American reviewers say it's a bit sweet, but is it really...
The aroma is green melon, not very sweet.
Instead, there is a slight minerality.
The taste is definitely sweeter than Japanese Otters.
But there is a bit of astringency due to the high mineral content of the water, so I think it is rather well balanced.
It is still a little rough compared to Type 23, but it is still a good sake.
