DASSAI works with more than 2,000 Yamada Nishiki farmers in 22 prefectures throughout Japan in order to help them produce better Yamada Nishiki.
Crafted as a tribute to the Kansai region, this sake is made exclusively from Yamada Nishiki grown in Kansai to create “DASSAI Junmai Daiginjo 23.”
During the pressing process, only the“Nakadori” ̶ the most fragrant portion with a rounded sweetness ̶ is selected.
Presented in a wooden box made from Yoshino cedar from Kansai, this is a special Dassai 23% available exclusively at Kansai International Airport KIX DUTY FREE.
■About Nakadori
“Nakadori” refers to the middle portion of sake collected during the pressing process. It is taken between the initial free-run portion called “Arabashiri” and the final portion called “Seme,” which is extracted under stronger pressure.
Nakadori sake is made using the most well-balanced portion obtained during pressing.
It is characterized by a smooth, refined, and crystal-clear flavor profile with minimal harshness, offering excellent harmony between aroma, umami, and acidity.
