X3 Flaxen
Sake is yellowish and has a caramel-like flavor sweetness. Quite sweet sake. Surprisingly, the sweetness is not clingy and moderate.
It has a rich umami taste. It tastes even sweeter when heated.
This is delicious.

An expensive sake purchased on order.
The aroma has a slight alcohol smell.
When you drink it, it has a sour taste, but you can also taste sweetness!
It has a heavy but clean aftertaste.
I like it!
It is a gift!
Plenty of malted rice. Put it in a barrel.
Isn't this whiskey? It smells faintly like it.
Take a sip. Yeah, it's not whiskey... is it? It's sake!
My first experience. Yum!
Akita sake today! I bought a bottle of Akita Juginjo, which is done by the Akita Sake Brewers Association. The requirements are to use Akita rice, and the water and yeast are also from Akita! So Junmai Ginjo 😄 comes randomly with sake from Akita breweries. Last year we got Shinmasa, so I was hoping for the same this time! But this time there was nothing I was looking for (tears).
But I am looking forward to seeing some new sakes! This time it was sake from Kinmon Akita. This sake is made by Kinmon Akita, which specializes in the flavor of rice. The aroma is mild, like blue cheese or green bamboo. When you drink it, the sweetness is moderately bitter with a strong umami flavor. The aftertaste is also refreshing. The aroma made me think it would be heavier, but it is very easy to drink and tastes great without any alcohol. It is not a modern sake, but it is a calm sake. All Akita's sakes are delicious 😄I realized how high the level of Akita's sakes is.
Good morning, Sashu 😃.
Akita Tour Ginjo! How many bottles are coming?
Even if you don't have a favorite 🥲, you might hit the jackpot 🎯 for the first time 🤗Akita sake is really good 😋.
Hi Jay & Nobby (^o^) I ordered a set of 3 bottles this time 😄 I can choose the number of other bottles as well. Akita sake is very good and of a high level even if I don't know it myself!
Sourness. Aged like? Full-bodied taste. The color is flaxen. It has a little bit of a habit, but it's easy to drink. My cat is very interested in it 😆🐈.
Set of two "Akita Megaginjo" sake gachas arrived yesterday.
This is an interesting event in which sake from 28 breweries in Akita Prefecture are randomly sent to you, and you can discover popular sake such as Shinmasa, Yuki no Bijin and Isshaku Suisei, as well as other local breweries with a strong local flavor.
A bottle of Akita Fuji Sake Brewery's Akita Sake Komachi was a classic bottle!
The aroma was matured from the top, but the taste was not too peculiar, so it was easy to savor!
However, the price has been raised so much compared to last year that the cost performance has become much worse, which is troubling,
2022 3-bottle set, 5,000 yen including shipping
2023: 5,500 yen for a set of 2 bottles including shipping
Rice polishing ratio:Koji rice 55%, Kake rice 40% (100% Akita Sake Komachi is used)
Alcohol content: 16%.
The aroma of aging, the flavor is not bloated, and the umami is quickly released. Soft and long aftertaste. It is very good. With pickled ginger cheese and grilled squid

This sake I chose
X3 or χ3?
X3, apparently.
When I tried to take a picture of it, what came out was a very fresh sake.
I wondered if it was a very sweet sake?
No, no, no, it wasn't.
It's sweet, it's tasty.
But it also has the body of a sake, like yomeishu, if you will.
Rather than drinking it as it is, drinking it with something to go with it makes the sake go further
Highly appreciated by my friends
extensive knowledge
This is a special junmai sake with three times the amount of koji used as usual.
