Dassai 50 Junmai Daiginjo

The "Otter Fest" sake, from Yamaguchi Prefecture's Asahi Shuzo. Yamada Nishiki and omachi milled to 50%, SMV +4, acidity 1.5, amino acidity 0.9, and 16.5% abv. Pretty aroma, floral, fruity and clean. On the palate, concentrated, sweet fruit and rice pudding, syrupy, but transitioning to a dry, not-quite-sharp finish. Lovely to drink, even if the company claims they don't make sake for drinking, only for "sipping." Rightfully popular stuff.
