After a brief silence, Saki Ishihara and Natsumi Haysaka quickly found the topic again. When girls were together, they always had endless things to say.

Natsumi Haysaka said in a self-comfortable tone: "We Karuizawa-cho are already very good. Even if we are included in the entire Japan, we are definitely one of the best.

Nowadays, many towns in Japan have become worse and worse in the economy and population. Many towns do not even have a convenience store, which is not as economical as our Karuizawa Town, but also has all the living facilities."

This statement from Haysaka Natsumi is an absolute truth. The Japanese government has promoted several mergers of local autonomous entities in history. In 2004, the total number of cities and towns fell below 3,000 for the first time, and fell below 1,800 on December 1, 2007.

The reason for this situation is that on the one hand, it is aging and less birth, and on the other hand, it is the siphon effect of central cities.

The young and strong laborers in small Japanese places all actively move and gather in major Japanese cities such as Tokyo, Osaka Prefecture, Yokohama City, Nagoya City, etc.

Especially the younger generation, naturally, they don’t want to live a life that can see their heads at a glance, so they left their hometown with simple thoughts and went to the big city to work hard.

Another thing is that even if you want to continue to live in your hometown, you cannot find any decent jobs and even more money.

Even if they work for more than ten hours a day, live in cheap apartments in old and dilapidated apartments, they still can't save much money.

The poor and busy tribe was created among them. For this reason, nhk also filmed the Japanese trilogy "The poor and busy tribe".

Saki Ishihara is not like Natsumi Hayaka, who belongs to the type of child who is a poor family. She is completely like a small flower living in a greenhouse.

Her so-called personal social experience either comes from the personal narrative of Masao Ishihara, her mother and others, or from film and television dramas.

Saki Ishihara doesn’t like to talk about heavy topics, so he deliberately changed the topic and said, “Let’s continue talking about whiskey!”

Haysaka Natsumi said without objection: “Ireland and Scotland are not only so close, but have been the same country for a long time in history.

How can their whiskeys be different? Irish whiskeys give people the feeling that they are far inferior to Scotch whiskey in terms of fame and quality.”

Saki Ishihara talked: "The Irish whiskey distillation uses three-way distillation, while 90% of the Scotch whiskey distillation uses two-way distillation.

The more times the whiskey is distilled, the better it does not mean. The more times the distilled, there is indeed a good side. The cleaner the impurities will be removed, and the higher the alcohol content will be.

The other side is that when removing impurities, many of the flavors are removed. Another thing is whether the distillation equipment used by the whiskey distiller is the tower still or the pot still?

The advantage of a tower still is to remove impurities. This also eliminates a lot of flavors. As for the pot still, the advantage is that it can be artificially intervened, so that only the part of the distillation process can be taken away.

The disadvantage is that it is far inferior to the tower still when removing impurities. Although this pot still can retain a lot of flavor, it will also mix into some bad things, which will negatively affect the quality of the wine.

The malt of Irish whiskey is air-dried, while the malt of Scotch whiskey is baked.

In addition, whether a whiskey distiller uses non-condensing filtration or condensing filtration will eventually affect the taste of the whiskey.

Also, ob and ib will also affect the taste of whiskey. ob refers to official filling, which means that the whiskey distiller has its own independent filling ability.

ib refers to independent filling. This means that the whiskey distiller does not have its own independent filling ability, but sells whole buckets of whiskey.

Manufacturers who buy whole barrels of whiskey from distillery and then fill themselves generally do not have their own distillation equipment. ib takes up a larger market share.

However, in terms of ensuring the quality of the wine, ob is far better than ib, and the price will be higher than whiskeys of the same brand of ib. Our Karuizawa whiskeys belong to ob.

This is a very complex and selective issue. If you consider the natural climatic conditions, add to the selection of raw materials, wooden barrels... In short, it is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words."

Haysaka Natsumi blinked her eyes and sighed: "It's not simple!"

Saki Ishihara said in detail: "That's the case. The more complicated the whiskey production process, the higher the cost.

While this cost increases, the ex-factory price will rise with the increase. When ultimate consumers choose whiskey, they naturally need to consider the price factor.

Whether high-priced whiskeys can be recognized by consumers is not an easy task. This often takes a long process. If you want to impress consumers to pay for it, you should still rely on the quality of the whiskey.

A good quality whiskey does not mean that it will be easy to sell. This is directly linked to the national economy, especially the country's economy. If you have money in your pocket, you will naturally choose good wine to drink.

On the contrary, if everyone is nervous, they will reduce the purchase of good wine, or even reduce the expenditure on alcohol. Apart from people suffering from alcohol dependence, alcohol can be completely drunk, but not.

At the beginning, our Karuizawa Whiskey was once in a very difficult period of operation. If my brother had not taken over and turned the tide, our Ishihara family's Karuizawa Whiskey Distillery would have gone bankrupt."

Haysaka Natsumi said: "It proves that President Ishihara has extraordinary talent in the winemaking industry."

"Take it down! Even my brother admitted it himself. He is at best a rookie newbie in winemaking.

A sentence he often says is that professional things must be left to the most professional people to do in order to maximize their value.

What my brother is best at is that he has a very appropriate mindset in business and investment. He can always grasp the best buying window.

Because my brother has a unique vision and courage, he always gets the right one and buys the right one. In addition, he knows how to use people. This makes Karuizawa Group better and better." Saki Ishihara said everything and said everything.
