Chapter 297: This Wine Is Poisonous

Since he planned to educate Kitahara Shuji, the young shoots of the wine country, An Yun Yingsuke's eyes froze, his expression became solemn, and he directly posed in the frame pose of the predecessors of the wine country, holding the white porcelain wine bottle and watching it carefully - Kitahara Xiuji originally planned to make wine and slaughter customers, so he naturally worked the packaging, and specially purchased the craft porcelain, the plain white porcelain is an ink landscape, and it is full of elegance.

As a senior in the wine country and a sake connoisseur, Eisuke Yasuke naturally wants to appreciate the bottle carefully to show respect, and by the way, improve his momentum, and at the same time take the lead: "Does Kitahara-kun understand sake?"

Although Kitahara Shuji was busy in his hands, his attention was still on Eisuke Azumi. He doesn't drink alcohol and can't intuitively judge the quality of sake, so he also wanted to hear what this very picky drinker had to say about the sake he made, so he replied with a smile: "I can only say that I know a little bit about it." ”

"Kitahara-kun is humble...... "Eisuke Anyu thinks that Kitahara Shuji should know a lot about sake, after all, in izakaya, sometimes you have to match the snacks according to the wine chosen by the guests, and you can't be a good chef if you don't understand wine, but the chef knows wine and the brewer knows how to make sake are two different things - those who use guns and those who make guns can't be compared.

He said confidently, "...... But since Kitahara-kun said so, let me taste the secret treasures of your store, and to tell you the truth, if there is any rudeness, please don't mind Kitahara-kun. ”

He really didn't want to offend a famous chef, people like Kitahara Shuji sent a sentence saying that the wine produced in his brewery was garbage, and many customers in this restaurant really thought it was garbage without tasting it, but he still had to convince Kitahara Shuiji, because the risk was high and the return was great, if Kitahara Shuji could advocate for him, at least people in the food circle would need to reposition the wine produced in his brewery.

Kitahara Shuji didn't mind: "Mr. An Yun is the best to tell the truth, please feel free to speak up." ”

Eisuke Yasuki gently unsealed the beeswax, uncorked the bottle, took a deep breath of wine, and couldn't help laughing, "Junmai wine?"

"That's right. ”

"It's rare to see ancient brewing!" Eisuke sighed, and then began to pour wine into the pig's mouth cup - this pouring is also exquisite.

Many people know that the way you pour sake affects the taste of red wine, and the same is true for sake, but few people know this. In the same container, pour the wine at a normal speed, pour the wine violently, or slowly pour the wine along the wall of the glass, and the richness, volatility, and softness of the wine will change accordingly depending on the way the wine is poured.

In the words of Seabed, who is not a famous wine taster, it is also one of the pleasures of drinking to taste the subtle changes in taste brought about by different ways of pouring wine.

An Yunying's assistant is very steady, slightly closing his eyes to distinguish the volatile wine vapor and the sound of wine falling into the wine utensils, and the most suitable for drinking wine is a tall glass, and the most suitable for drinking sake is plain-fired pottery. He was still satisfied with the pig's mouth cup in front of him, and felt that it was a good wine vessel - the former general Fukuzawa Naotaka was not good at cooking, but the dishes and wine utensils he picked were all of the best quality.

The first glass of wine, An Yunying poured it quite gently, ready to taste the essence of this wine in the gentlest way, and the pig's mouth cup gradually filled, but he found that the color of the wine was not right, the wine was blood-red, and he couldn't help but lose his voice: "This is cellar wine?"

Freshly brewed sake is clear and colorless or pale yellow, and is usually left out for a year, but the color of the sake does not change much. However, sake can also be cellared, and the color of the sake becomes darker as it ages, from pale yellow to orange yellow, then orange to amber, and finally to blood.

It is usually limited to eight years, and after eight years, the color will look like blood flowing from the veinsβ€”in the old shogunate period, when the shogun worshiped the gods, he would drink the sake that had been stored for more than 12 years, and it was said to taste like a rotten animal carcasse.

The best color of cellar sake is probably blood red, and it has the purest taste in about five or six years, and the taste is somewhere between sherry and whisky. But there is a problem, unless the general sake is carefully maintained and stored, it is not easy to store for five or six years, because the alcohol content is too low, and it is very easy to deteriorate and rot - out of such a good bottle, it is estimated that the cellar will deteriorate and destroy ten or even dozens of bottles in the same period.

An Yun Yingsuke didn't expect Kitahara Shuji to come up with such a superb color, and suddenly became cautious, and Kitahara Shuji just smiled at him - this wine is squeezed out of this color, at most it has been stored for more than two months, it is not a cellar at all, it should be a chain effect of [perfect koji].

However, Kitahara Shuji didn't want to say it, but he didn't lie easily, so he just smiled and didn't say anything, and let An Yun Yingsuke make up for it on his own or when he acquiesced - if he changed Dongmei, looking at his expression, he had already begun to be vigilant.

The other three members of An Yun's family had already ordered some set meals and were eating, and they were fully engaged in eating, and their body and mind were happy, but at this time, they found that An Yun Yingzhu, a connoisseur who was a drinker, was shocked and looked over, and An Yun Gaozhi, the second middle school boy, looked at the blood-colored sake and was suspicious - he had no son to inherit his father's business, and he didn't know how to drink at all.

An Yunying didn't care about his family, took a deep breath and gently raised his glass to taste - cellaring will improve the perfection of sake, but the essence still depends on whether the wine is good or not!

Sake is a simple type of liquor, and there are two main aspects to tasting:

The first indicator is acidity, which does not refer to acid in the usual sense, but to the acid content of sake rather than drinking alcohol. The higher the acidity, the more mellow and intense the wine, and the lower the acidity, the lighter and tasteless the wine – what we usually call an old wine is a wine that is saturated with acid content and in equilibrium.

For example, lactic acid accounts for more acidity, which will be more pungent in taste (as is generally the case in new wines), and organic acids are more abundant, and the taste will be slightly astringent (not far from bad), while succinic acid can balance and assimilate other acids, making the taste more balanced - most of the good old wines are similar to amber, which is the external manifestation of this acid.

The second indicator is spiciness, which does not refer to the feeling of choking, it is alcohol, and without alcohol, it is not wine, but refers to the cool and spicy taste. In the case of sake, there should be no spiciness, only rice and water, and there should be no spicy ingredients in it - if there is, it is most likely fake, it is a modern blended sake, with edible alcohol and chemical additives added to it, which can make the tongue feel a mint experience.

It can't be arbitrarily said that blending wine is not good, but this kind of wine is easy to get on after drinking, and the sweetness is not enough, and there is no beauty, it is really simply drinking wine.

This is a good choice for buying drunk, but not a good choice for enjoying alcohol.

Eisuke Yasuke was ready to find out the shortcomings of the sake in front of him from these two aspects, and after taking a sip, he said, "This sake ......"

He pondered for a moment, then took another sip: "This wine ......"

He tasted two sips, but still couldn't find anything to blame, and couldn't help but take a sip again, his eyes slowly widened, and his body trembled slightly - he finally realized that this wine was too perfect, full of acidity, unprecedented mellow taste, rich in aroma, drinking into the mouth, as the temperature of the wine in the mouth rises, it seems to stimulate the deeper aroma and taste of the wine, quite a wave of continuous and continuous feeling, which makes people want to experience it for a longer time and are reluctant to swallow.

He really had nothing to say, and even because he drank such a perfect wine for the first time in his life, he couldn't help but have some tears in his eyes, and he trembled even more for a while, and his wife Ruizi found that something was wrong, and quickly stroked his back, and asked repeatedly: "Child, Dad, what's wrong with you?"

When your father-in-law passed away, you had this expression!

An Yunying was in a trance, and she was completely lost in the dream of the aroma of wine. Even if he hears it, he doesn't want to answer, he just wants to bring out more and more wonderful flavors in his mouth - only lifelong winemakers know how difficult the word "perfect" is to appear in wine!

Sake brewing is a very random industry, and changes in air humidity will affect the final quality, so he really can't think of how to make this perfect sake except for the favor of the gods!

He now had the shock of seeing the pyramid for the first time as a caveman, and his mind was in turmoil.

An Yunai was also stunned, it was the first time she saw her father drinking with this expression, and An Yun Gaozhi, the second teenager, directly shot the case and shouted: "This wine is poisonous!"

Sure enough, my dad was demented directly after drinking!

With his shout, the pure flavor room, which was originally full of laughter, suddenly fell silent, and Haruna directly clenched the kitchen knife, and her little face darkened.

The catering industry is most afraid of the word "poison", this second rebellious teenager called it like this, it is simply smashing her family's signboard in front of her at present, it is really an uncle who can't bear it anymore!

Kitahara Shuji is also on fire, he now opens a store with an annual income of tens of millions of yen, all counting on this store to feed the Fukuzawa family and support the original owner's family out of poverty, if this bad reputation, it is to destroy his plan, he is not finished with anyone - if he doesn't mess with him, he is willing to take care of his classmates, but if he really provokes him, except for the group of his own people who are close to him, outsiders will immediately turn their faces and do not hesitate.

The kitchen knife in his hand pulled a knife flower, his eyes sharpened, he looked directly at An Yun Gaozhi, and said coldly: "Speak responsibly, guest!"

He has always felt that people should at least be responsible for their own words and deeds, and it has nothing to do with age, what "he's still a child" nonsense doesn't work for him at all, and he has a human life, not to mention the thousand people in the [Meditation Battle], even in real life, it has been dripping in blood, this face is full of momentum, which directly makes An Yun on the opposite side instantly pale in a loud voice, and he didn't dare to face him directly, and he staggered back involuntarily.

An Yun Gaozhi suddenly had a feeling of facing a tiger, the gentle and generous cook suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a fierce beast that could easily take people's lives, and suddenly his legs were weak and wanted to pee for some reason.

Dongmei was also shocked, An Yun's family has been personally entertained by Kitahara Shuiji, she paid attention to An Yunai a few times, and found that she was very honest, and she didn't care about Kitahara Shuiji, but she didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, she directly waved her hand, signaled Xia Zhi Xia Sha to block the door, and came to the kitchen counter by herself, and asked directly: "Guest, what happened?"

She is not afraid of things, she really came to smash the field, so she mobilized the whole family to beat these people into pigs' heads.

A nearby table of guests also came up, this is a gathering of three small merchant society leaders, they are of higher social class, not too afraid of things, and they like the extremely exquisite food of Chunweiya, a small shop with extremely exquisite cuisine, and asked with great concern: "What is the misunderstanding?"

Haven't they been here for a day or two, and they trust Kitahara Shuji very much, so they directly characterized the matter as a misunderstanding first, and even prepared to help this store get out in case of something - they would die of trouble when it closed.

An Yun Yingzhu came back to his senses and quickly explained: "It's this wine...... This wine is perfect!"

He still can't believe it, his expression is still a little trance, and An Yunai is very clever, knowing that his second brother has made a big accident and committed a big taboo, and he saw that Kitahara Xiuji seemed to have suddenly changed people, with a frosty face, he immediately made a decision, grabbed his younger brother and turned around and bowed together: "I'm really sorry, my brother is joking at will and causing trouble for everyone!"

She forcibly bowed to her younger brother three times, and An Yun Takashi was already half frightened by Kitahara Shuichi, even if she was a little dissatisfied and wronged in her heart, she didn't dare to be strong, and she was pressed on her head by her sister to apologize without saying a word.

The guests in the store didn't believe it in the first place, and it didn't matter if it was a bear kid joking, so after laughing and scolding, they all turned back and continued to talk about their own days and drink their own wine, and An Yun Ruizi also said to Fuyumi and Kitahara Shuji to accompany them, and Fuyumi didn't dig into it - it's a guest, and when he has already made amends, it's not appropriate to really play out.

She was about to go back and continue to work as a waitress, but the three small merchant presidents who had come over had already leaned on the wine bottle and sniffed it together, and almost at the same time, they raised their heads and asked Kitahara Shuji in surprise: "General, what kind of wine is this? Please bring me a bottle!"

Kitahara Shuji slowly reined in his ferocity, and returned to becoming a five-good boy, some thanks to these three people for being willing to help - although it's okay if you don't come, but it's always kind, so he smiled and said: "It's a private brew, there is only one bottle!"

"Give it to me!" As soon as he finished speaking, six hands grabbed the bottle together.

Kitahara Shuji didn't plan to treat him, at least he wanted to get back the cost of the time spent, he didn't let go of the bottle, and quoted the price with a smile: "50,000 yen!"

The conscience price, it can be regarded as a parity sale without slaughtering people, he spent a lot of time for these seventeen bottles of wine, if it weren't for the help of these three people, he dared to ask for 80,000 yen.

"Give me 50,000 yuan!" The six hands still don't let anyone, 50,000 yen is not a problem for them, the key is whether the wine is good or not, and I sniffed it just now, it is definitely the best wine, I haven't seen that I have drunk a stupid one!

What's more important is that they have confidence in Kitahara Shuji, they have eaten here for so long, it is expensive, but it is always worth the money, this wine dares to sell for 50,000 yen, it is definitely not ordinary.

Dongmei's eyes lit up, she was very interested in how to squeeze out the last drop of oil from the fat sheep, and immediately sat on the ground and started the price: "Three guests, the one with the highest price wins!"

She thought very beautifully, and was ready to make a lot of money at the auction, but the three presidents were not fools, and they looked at each other and suddenly said: Let's come together!

They said in unison, "Let's buy it together!"

Kitahara Shuji let go of his hand, motioned to the disappointed little radish head to write it down on the list, and said with a smile: "Our store will give two appetizers, please wait." ”

The three presidents grabbed the wine bottle and went back together, and beckoned Fuyumi to bring them a warm sake jug, while Kitahara Shuji reported the ingredients, motioned for Haruna to prepare, and then looked at Yasui Eisuke.

Seeing that you are so picky about wine, I thought it was your predecessor in the wine country, a character like a wine fairy, but I didn't expect to drink a glass and become demented, it seems that it is nothing more than that, and I should not be able to give any useful advice, which is disappointing!
