Asahi Shuzo Co., Ltd., known as the brewery of Junmai Daiginjo "Rosai", collaborated with the plum wine research association of the general corporation and commercialized a plum wine "Festival Plum wine" charged with sake.
This time, Kokosil Editorial Division also participated in a new product presentation for media, so I will tell you how it is.
The announcement of "獺 祭 梅 酒" was held at the festival store in Ginza.
It seems because the plum wine research group 's proposal was made that this time a product that was not plum wine x Japanese sake was born.

At the plum wine research group, a nationwide plum wine committee is held , and professional eyes have selected outstanding items among many plum wines and commended them. Besides that, we organize and co-host the plum wine festival throughout the country, carry out a drink comparison event of plum wine, and also exhibit plum wine at overseas alcohol watching events and introduce it and so on.
And plum wine association is regularly held at the plum wine specialty store produced by the plum wine research group , pursuing marriage of plum wine and a variety of dishes, from which the concept of plum wine x sake this time was born, the highest quality of pure It seems to have proposed to Asahi Shuzo sticking to U.S. large gruel.

Mr. Hiroshi Sakurai, Chairman, Asahi Shuzo, greeting
Asahi Brewer 's motto is "not to drink alcohol for sickness, seek sake to taste . " Festival which is sticking to the quality of raw materials thoroughly, carefully made with time and labor in all processes is popular not only in Japan, but also overseas. Also in Paris, France, "Dassai Joel Robuchon" partnered with Mr. Joel Robuchon of French chef has opened and we are disseminating how to enjoy the new festival fused with French food culture.

Here is the plum wine that we bought at Asahi Shuzo Co., Ltd. created without compromise "獺 祭 Junmai Daisujin Shine 20% 3 minutes". It is a slightly pink color. Although ordinary plum wine is commonly called amber color, "Festival plum wine" uses the proper ume plum of Minami Takumi from Wakayama Prefecture , and fresh plum before ripening makes this beautiful color It seems to be producing. I definitely would like to have fun with eyes by pouring it into a transparent glass.
After enjoying the rich fragrance of plum and including it in the mouth, it has a sour taste while feeling a firm plum flavor, so it is a clean drinking mouth. Many people enjoy plum wine as an aperitif and after dinner, but I felt that we wanted "Festival plum wine" with meals. It seems to be compatible with meals with strong umami such as cheese and meat .
