Chapter 273: Wine Tasting Techniques

Liu Xiaoming is really blindfolded, this old man is really scared. At the same time www.biquge.info Liu Xiaoming had doubts in his heart, so he asked the people around him.

"Brother, what kind of person is this old man? Why, so many people are afraid to hate him. ”

Hearing this, the boss next to Liu Xiaoming, who was complaining, turned his head to look at Liu Xiaoming speechlessly.

"Isn't it, brother, you don't know him??"

looked at Liu Xiaoming in surprise, this person seemed to have met an alien.

"Uh... This one?? I really don't know, this boss said in detail, this is the first time I have come to this drinking party. For this person's eyes, Liu Xiaoming was also speechless. It was as if it was a sin for someone to come to a drinking party not to know this person.

Hearing this, this person suddenly looked at Liu Xiaoming.

"So that's the case, so it's no wonder. I said so! It's really strange that there are still people who don't know this old Hades. In that case, brother, I'll tell you about it. ”

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoming hurriedly listened with long ears.

"This old Hades, as long as we come to the drinking party, we all hate him like this. He is notoriously harsh, and at the same time a poisonous mouth is not acceptable to ordinary people.

Back then, there was an old man's wine, which was said to be swill by this old devil, which made his business almost bankrupt. When he returned, no one bought his wine.

Moreover, after fermentation, business is getting worse and worse. In the end, I had to change careers. Tell me, this poisonous mouth, that's not who meets who is unlucky. Moreover, for the merchant who is poor in drinking, this stinky old man is never merciless, and sometimes you want to beat him to death with a stick.

At the same time, his influence is so great that even if he hates him to the bone, he can't do anything to him. Over time, he became the least popular person at the drinking party. ”

While speaking, this person looked at Fan Lao above excitedly. Liu Xiaoming looked at him, really worried that he would rush to beat someone.

"It seems that this guy has also been poisoned, otherwise he can't be so impulsive."

After a pitiful glance at this person, Liu Xiaoming focused his gaze on it.

"I'm Fan Shu, you all know, I won't introduce it. However, I have a sentence to make clear, if the wine is not very good, it is better to abstain now. ”

Fan Shu's tone was cold and stiff at the same time, which was very different from Mo Lao's kindness. With that, he turned and left, without the slightest politeness.

"The dead old man of the dog day, it's this rotten temper again, it's been a few years, and it's still this sentence, and it hasn't changed."

"This old stubborn donkey, sooner or later I will destroy him."

"Extinguish? How do you extinguish? Are you going to fight him? ”

"Uh.... I don't dare. However, at the next drinking party, Lao Tzu will make a bottle of swill for this old man to drink, and let him drink a real swill. ”

"Forehead ....."

"Brother, your suggestion is good, how did you come up with it, let's form a group when the time comes."

In an instant, the people around him looked at this person in horror. Then, stay away from him.

Then, it's easy to do. In addition to these three judges, there are twenty-five judges. These twenty-five people are all used for screening.

Only after they have passed this hurdle can the rest of the people go to the second round.

So, the next step is to officially begin. Receiving the order, everyone went outside, took their wine, and then went to the open square, which had been prepared for a long time, to start the first round.

Liu Xiaoming hurriedly found Nie Xin and asked the other party to bring the wine over. Then, according to the number plate given by Chai Hongji before he entered the door, he went to line up.

This thing, there is no back door to go through, everyone is the same. Even last year's champion will have to pass the first round this year.

Wine tasting, above all, is a pleasure. So, there is nothing special for anyone.

There are twenty-five benches and tables, each with a person in front of it. At the same time, on the table, there are a series of things such as wine picks prepared here, wine glasses, etc. The twenty-five judges of the first round are not simple people, they are all certified tasters by authoritative institutions.

This can also be seen from the importance that the members of this tasting party attach to this event. At the same time, our country is also strictly divided into grades of liquor. The grading is strictly marked from the beginning. The main principle is determined according to the composition, degree, aroma, taste, organoleptic, solids, etc. of the wine.

The indicators of different fragrance types are different. For example, the fragrance type is lactic acid, acetic acid, ethyl lactate, ethyl acetate, fragrance, taste, sensory, solids, and alcohol level!!

Generally speaking, special grade, excellent grade, first grade, second grade, generally only to the second grade! At the same time, there are also very strict ways and methods for the identification of liquor.

Three steps to wine tasting

The purpose of wine tasting is to determine not only its physical and chemical indicators, but also to conduct sensory identification. According to the color and aroma of the wine to make a judgment, it is generally carried out in three steps:

The first step is to look at the color, raise your glass to the light, and observe the color of the wine. Except for the sauce flavor type, the flavor type and a small number of strong flavor types with a slight yellow head, the other flavor types of liquor should be colorless and transparent. If there is turbidity, precipitation, suspended solids, etc., it is unqualified.

The second step is to smell the incense. Pour the wine into the glass, close to the nose and slowly inhale the aroma into the nose. You can only inhale into the wine, not exhale into it.

The third step is tasting, and wine tasting is the most important thing.

Each kind of wine contains five flavors: sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and astringent, and these five flavors must have an appropriate ratio to have a good taste. If the sweetness is too much, you will feel greasy; If the sourness is less, you will feel light; If the bitterness is less, there will be a feeling of confusion; Appropriate astringency can add to the aftertaste of the wine; Spicy, can play a stimulating role.

Take a sip of wine during the tasting. The sensitivity of the tongue to various flavors is different. Sweet taste buds in front of the tongue; The sour taste buds are on the tongue; Bitter taste buds at the back of the tongue; Astringency is the saliva secretion affected by the astringency of wine; Spiciness, on the other hand, is the excitement of the taste buds caused by alcohol.

The precautions that should be paid attention to when tasting wine are: rinse your mouth before tasting, do not use perfume, and do not smoke. Because perfume and cigarette are easy to destroy the fragrance of alcohol. In addition, it is not advisable to eat foods with too strong a taste before tasting.

The order of tasting is as follows: white first and then red in color; In terms of sweetness, it is first dry and then sweet; In terms of alcohol content, it is low first and then high. The order of tasting liquor from the aroma type is: light fragrance, rice fragrance, strong fragrance, other fragrance and sauce fragrance.

At the same time, most of them are liquor this time, so for the identification of liquor: the liquor is colorless and transparent, without suspension, turbidity and precipitation; The wall of the bottle shall not appear ring-shaped dirt, and it has the unique mellow aroma of liquor, and the taste is pure and there is no peculiar smell. Baijiu, also known as distilled spirit, is a colorless and transparent beverage with high alcohol content made by adding koji yeast and other auxiliary materials through saccharification, fermentation and distillation with substances rich in starch or sugar components.

People attach great importance to the aroma and taste of liquor when drinking, and the current evaluation of the quality of liquor is mainly based on sensory indicators, that is, it is identified from three aspects: color, aroma and taste. These things are very cumbersome.

Therefore, for the identification of a glass of wine, it is not just a simple sip, it requires professional identification to make people convinced. Liu Xiaoming and many wine merchants are all sitting in designated places, waiting for the call of the judges over there.
