Chapter 501 Big Cat Whiskey
Karuizawa, Ishihara family mansion. Although Ishihara Saki is playing the online game "Stone Age", he is already tired of the repeated process of killing monsters and upgrading monsters and taking tasks.
So she handed over the work of playing games to a maid at home to do it for herself. The other party's daily work was no longer about cleaning, but was replaced by a special person's responsibility for practicing numbers for herself.
Natsumi Haysaka walked into the room and smiled as soon as she saw Saki Ishihara and said with a smile: "Saki, I'm here."
Saki Ishihara suddenly came out of boredom and said, "You are finally here. If I don't call you, will you not come to me?"
Haysaka Natsumi quickly explained seriously: "It's not. I really don't have much free time and have to prepare for the college entrance examination.
If I can’t get into a prestigious university in Tokyo, then it will be a big problem to enter a big company as a formal member in the future.”
While Ishihara Saki fully expressed his understanding, he complained: "You all have something to do, but I don't have anything to do."
Haysaka Natsumi heard another meaning in her words and said: "I want to live like you without pressure and carefreeness, but I don't have such a wealthy and noble life.
Why? President Ishihara is not at home and has gone out to do business? Where has he been going this time? He is going to buy the winery again!"
Saki Ishihara said calmly: "He has gone to Chengdu, China. His plan is to acquire a Chinese liquor factory."
Natsumi Hayaka naturally doesn’t know much about Chinese liquor. However, she knew that there would be one more winery under the Karuizawa Group.
Natsumi Haysaka then got to the point: "Saki, what did you ask me to do? You are mysterious on the phone."
Saki Ishihara immediately smiled and said, "I'll ask you to drink."
Haysaka Natsumi asked in surprise: "Can you drink?"
Saki Ishihara answered truthfully: "Drink less, it's absolutely fine."
Of course, Natsumi Haysaka knew very well that they could not drink at their age. According to the current Japanese law, they could only drink at the age of twenty. However, law is one thing, but it will be another thing in actual life.
Such laws that restrict drinking for minors are basically useless, not to mention in Japan, even in China, the United States, South Korea and other countries.
As long as minors don’t drink something, it’s fine. If something happens to drink something, especially if someone dies, the store selling alcohol will have nothing to do with people.
How many people who drink alcohol only start drinking after adulthood? Most people start drinking secretly since they are underage.
The saliva in Haysaka Natsumi's mouth gradually accelerated and said: "Once, you took me to an izakaya opened by Koyama Ryoto and drank a whiskey called a kitten, which still made me miss it."
Saki Ishihara raised his right hand and gestured an "ok" gesture and said, "You are talking about Kliniki for 14 years!"
"Yes, yes, it's this wine." Haysaka Natsumi blurted out.
Saki Ishihara smiled slightly and said, "No problem. Today, I not only let you drink kitten whiskey, but also let you drink big cat whiskey."
"Big cat whiskey? What is this?" This was the first time Haysaka Natsumi heard it.
Saki Ishihara explained: "Big Cat Whiskey is the Scottish single malt whiskey Brownla that was discontinued in 1983. Nowadays, it can be said that drinking one bottle is one less.
Today, I will treat you to Brownla for 34 years. However, I will tell you a situation in advance so that you can be mentally prepared.
Although big cats and kittens have their own distinctive waxy flavor, the former is stronger than the latter. To be precise, big cat whiskey has a heavy peat flavor.”
When Haysaka Natsumi heard this, she couldn't help but sucked in a cold breath and refused without hesitation: "Let's forget about the big cat whiskey. It's not suitable for my current taste."
Saki Ishihara said: "I don't like whiskey that has a strong peat flavor, either. However, my brother is completely acceptable.
Even light peat-flavored whiskey, I don't really like it. The Gemini stars of Scottish Highland products are one of the Kliniki you have had for 14 years, while the other is 14 years.
The latter is also Scottish single malt whiskey. It actually has a bit of peat flavor, but it is different from the Scottish peat flavor of Ireland.
The single malt whiskey in Ouben in 2014 also has the salty sea breeze of some island areas. It should be caused by the fact that the distillery is relatively close to the sea.
This one comes from the smallest whiskey distillery in Scotland. It reminds me of our Karuizawa Whiskey distillery, which was once the smallest whiskey distillery in Japan.
The Karuizawa whiskey produced by our family is definitely the No.1 among Japanese whiskeys. As for Ouben whiskey, it is not the first among Scotch whiskeys."
Natsumi Hayaka smiled and said, "I know there are six Scotch whiskey production areas. Speyer, Island, Irey Island, Highlands, Lowlands, Campbell Town. You have also told me about their different styles and characteristics."
Saki Ishihara talked: "At the beginning, Scotland did not have these six major production areas. Scotland divided the whisky production areas not because of their style characteristics, but because of different taxes.
The Scottish peat-flavored whiskey that is sought after by a very small number of whiskey enthusiasts is a new variety that was only available by chance.
Initially, Scotland's whisky distilleries were basically opened in towns. Later, due to a bad harvest of barley, the government decided to impose a heavy tax on whisky.
The government's purpose is to prevent barley from being used to make wine in large quantities. Therefore, some wineries were forced to move in desperation.
The purpose of this relocation is to reduce production costs. Some of the relocated wineries have moved to the current high-land areas and to Irey Island.
The winery moved to the Islei Island to use local peat to bake the barley. The whiskey made after baking the barley has the original peat flavor today."
Haysaka Natsumi gained new knowledge that she had never had before and praised her sincerely: "Saki, you are worthy of being a woman from the winemaking family."
Saki Ishihara said, "It's nothing, it's not what my brother told me. Otherwise, I wouldn't know, let alone tell you.
