Chapter 096 Whiskey
Instead of reaching out to get the chopsticks, Masao Ishihara directly reached out and took a piece of fried chicken from the fried chicken plate to eat. Not only beer is served with fried chicken, but whiskey is still served with fried chicken.
"Can you use chopsticks? Mizuki is still here?" Kudo Wakana was afraid that her daughter would be the same as him, and she said in a crooked manner, not straight and lower beams.
"Eating fried chicken is to eat it with your hands to make it taste the most delicious." Masao Ishihara said bluntly.
Kudo Wakana knew that she couldn't control him, but she could control her daughter. She deliberately looked at her daughter with a stern face and said, "Don't imitate your father. He is him, you are you."
He is a man, and as a girl, you should have the same appearance as a lady. When you were in kindergarten, your teachers should have taught you this aspect of etiquette and behavior."
Mitsuki Kudo looked at her and said angrily: "I think eating fried chicken like dad will make it more fragrant."
"Is that true? If you think about it this way, then I won't allow you to eat fried chicken." Kudo said in a pretentious look.
Mizuki Kudo was immediately scared by her mother, and she had to pick up the stainless steel fork that had been prepared for herself with her right hand and insert a piece of fried chicken on the plate of fried chicken to eat.
Kudo Wakana nodded her head satisfied with her behavior, and turned to a smile at her daughter and said, "Mizuki, how well-behaved."
Masao Ishihara did not interfere with her teaching her daughter like this. She picked up the whiskey glass with her left hand and raised her head and drank it down.
Granger's 10 years is not a tasting whiskey, and it is not a problem to use it entirely for serving meals.
Kudo Wakana put her attention back to him and asked thoughtfully: "Granger has been in 10 years, Granger has been in 12 years, and Grangerfiddy has been in 15 years. Although they are both entry-level Scottish single malt whiskey, how are their years different? Why is Grangerfiddy so high?"
Masao Ishihara explained truthfully based on his own experience: "Granfidi usually has to be downgraded at a discount in the year.
Its so-called 15 years is equivalent to 10 or 12 years of a year wine of a whiskey distillery of the same level. Therefore, I will raise the year of Glenfidy. Of course, Glenfidy also has 12 years of whiskey.
This is equivalent to Granwit's vintage whiskey. When buying any brand of whiskey, it is best to buy whiskey marked with a vintage, after all, you can better experience the basic brewing style and taste of a certain whiskey distillery.
As for whiskey without vintage, it is not bad. However, some of them are wineries that are specifically used to make money from the market because of insufficient raw wine, and harvest the leeks of those who don’t understand whiskey.”
Kudo Wakana completely believed his words. Her own men have been running distillery for generations. Not only are there whiskey distilleries, but also cider wineries.
"Whiskey is a drink for middle and upper class people in society? Do you agree with it?" Kudo Wakana was not on a whim.
After she gradually integrated into the established small circle, she found that there were great differences between the mothers' preferences and their own preferences.
Whenever they get together, she doesn't speak much, for fear of saying something wrong and making people laugh. After all, she has not lived a good life for a year and is completely unable to compare with those mothers.
"There is a certain reason. Poor people generally prefer sweet things, while rich people tend to prefer bitter things. Whisky is expensive, and even in developed countries in Europe and the United States, it is not something that poor people can afford to consume every day.
The low-end whiskey consumed by the middle and lower classes is the type of low-end whiskey with poor raw materials, rough distillation process, and short-term maturity in oak barrels.
The reason why Johnnie Walker achieved great success in blending whiskey has established its position in this blending whiskey brand is that it cannot sell its own single malt whiskey that it can't buy at the beginning.
So I thought of a way to mix all kinds of unsold single malt whiskey and cereal whiskey, and then add water to further dilute it. Wouldn't that reduce the price of whiskey?
Once the red side of Johnnie Walker was launched, it was welcomed by the general public. The red side made an indelible contribution to the legacy of Johnnie Walker. There is also a blended whiskey brand that also did the same thing as Johnnie Walker, that is Chivas.
During World War II, do you know what the wine that British soldiers drank the most on the battlefield?" Ishihara Masao couldn't help but think of a book "Text" that he had read in his previous life and talked about it.
Kudo Wakana blurted out: "Of course it's whiskey."
"I guess you'll say that. However, no, no, no. During World War II, British soldiers drank the most rum on the battlefield. It was because of the price.
Whiskey is more expensive, while rum is much cheaper.” Masao Ishihara stretched out his index finger and swung towards her left and right.
Kudo Wakana understood: "After saying that, it's just that you want to express this meaning. You need a certain amount of financial strength to be able to drink decent whiskey, to get more good whiskey from big brands, and to have the real chance to drink whiskey."
"It's almost the same. For example, RB's sake, those good sake, such as the 14th generation, Big Tengu, Fan... The high-end brands that are well-known to RB people also represent that the price of the Daginjo brewed by them will not be cheap.
For the ordinary working class, it is not a good thing that can be enjoyed frequently. Once in a while, let alone the poor.
The same is true for whiskey. The beauty of whiskey lies in the fact that you can slowly discover and experience the obvious different tastes and fun between different brands." Masao Ishihara said calmly.
"I understand. If you don't have money, you can only drink beer and you still have enough." Kudo Wakana couldn't help but laughed out loud.
"The full beer you mentioned belongs to industrial lager beer. Craft beer is not cheap either. Where young people gather, the most consumed wine is generally industrial lager beer.
Even young people who dance in the disco hall often only order cheaper beer. Izakaya is also one of the main places for beer consumption.
Not to mention the high-end bars of RB, even the ordinary small bars on the street, there are very few that sell industrial lager beers, but they often only sell craft beers.
This is mainly about selling whiskey. Many people's first close contact with whiskey started from the bar, and they gradually got to know Jack Dani, Zhenbao, Red Square, Black Square, Chivas, and Bailingtan among the whiskey brands." Masao Ishihara said calmly.
