To commemorate Joe Hisaishi's appointment in April 2025 as the music director of the Japan Century Symphony Orchestra, led by DASSAI’s chairman, Hiroshi Sakurai, DASSAI has created a special edition with Joe Hisaishi's portrait on the label. The portrait is designed by Kenshi Hirokane, the creator of the popular manga Shima Kosaku.
This exclusive set allows you to compare the same rice polishing
ratio sake made both in Japan and New York. The DASSAI BLUE made in
NY has a slightly lower alcohol content (about 2% less) than its
Japanese counterpart, offering a more elegant fragrance and refined
sweetness.
Half of the proceeds from the sale of this product will be donated
