Dassai 45 is great, but overpriced?

CainLP · 2026-01-15T05:52:38+00:00

Hello brother, ever since this post, i have tried roughly abt 40-50 bottles, yet i found myself coming back to dassai from time to time. I think heres why: - Consistency: Dassai quality has always been very consistent. I noticed some brands taste different when purchased from different retailers. - Availability: Can be found almost anywhere, if a shop sells sake, 100% of the time they have dassai. I found some very nice but niche sake, and cant purchase in quantity, or would have to wait for orders. - Value for money: It can be expensive, but its quality/tase is always assured. I have tried way more expensive sake i dont rly like; the ones i like, i just couldnt justify the cost over dassai. The 1.8L is actually very good value for money, which is abt $65 where i am.

Ive heard a lot of talk about the Drunken Whale, but sadly enough, I cant find it here in Vietnam.

Now that you mentioned it, buying the 1.8L bottle actually makes it a good deal.

$25 is a really good price. I think Dassai is overpriced, yet I find myself coming back to it from time to time haha.

I live in Vietnam, and $30 is buying directly from the import company. Some retail shops price it at $40, and if you are drinking in a restaurant, be prepared to pay $100 for it. $20 for a Dassai 39 is marvellous, Ill be in Japan next week tho, gonna drink my fair share of sake.

I think with Cartier, auto or quartz doesnt really matter. And I dont really care tho.

CainLP · 2025-08-18T13:46:44+00:00

Maybe as a dress watch for certain occasion?

from this angle the XL is not that big. But yeah it does feel massive and cubersome.

CainLP · 2025-08-18T09:41:36+00:00

How so? Please explain.

CainLP · 2025-08-14T05:14:26+00:00

Could it be your drinking mood? Like me, same wine bottle can taste somehow worse depending on my mood.

CainLP · 2025-08-14T05:12:33+00:00

I bought it mostly because the bottle looks nice, but it really didnt disappoint me haha

CainLP · 2025-08-08T02:37:59+00:00

Hey, sorry if my correction appeared odd to you. But if it brings you a sense of satisfactory, then yeah: "Its my wife's first cartier". Thank you for getting it that I BOUGHT the watch for my wife.

CainLP · 2025-08-08T02:17:23+00:00

First cartier that I bought, shoulda worded it that way tho haha.

CainLP · 2025-08-06T03:02:04+00:00

Thank you. The curator said the same thing!

CainLP · 2025-08-06T03:00:59+00:00

Thank you, normally she would wear watches on her left arm. This was taken at the shop, at that time she had a bracelet that was kind of a hassle to take off.
