Yamada Nishiki is known as the "king of sake rice," individual Yamada Nishiki farmers seemed neglected within the agricultural environment where regional logic prevailed. The sake born from rice selected for a contest is called "DASSAI Ambition." Made possible by the maturity of the brewery, embodies the passionate sake making into which selected elite brewers put their efforts.

In Japanese martial and fine arts, there's a concept called "Shuhari," which involves faithfully adhering to the teachings of predecessors while incorporating new perspectives and creativity to develop a unique style and technique that transcends. DASSAI also values this concept.

In "DASSAI Ambition," titanium bottles are adopted. Titanium, known for its properties of heating and cooling rapidly, allows for quick chilling after pasteurization, minimizing damage to the sake from heat and enabling the pursuit of better quality.

Additionally, it utilized a liquid freezing technique called "Tōmin," which involves rapid freezing with liquid alcohol at minus 30 ℃. By maintaining the sake in a frozen state until just before consumption, customers can enjoy it in a freshly squeezed state.
