3. CHILL な に し を 得 る
This is the Wakamiya Shuzo in Ayabe City, Kyoto Prefecture. In order to develop Japanese sake that resonates with young people, it has formed an industry-academia cooperation project with high schools and universities near Shuzo: sake rice "Five Million Stones" by Ayabe High School Agricultural Department third-year students For planting and harvesting, students from Fukuchiyama Public University's Faculty of Regional Affairs are responsible for product planning and brewing, and students from Kyoto University of Technology and Technology are responsible for wine label design. Through young people's self-thinking, new Japanese sake is created for young people.
The product design concept is a Japanese sake that can express the "Chill" that young people feel today. Healing x HipHop = Chill, not only for HipHop fans, but also for general music fans. "Silent healing music". The flavor is reminiscent of Chill music and imagination, and there are no restrictions on how to drink. This kind of Chill was a headache for Du Shi, because it is different from the yeast style used by Wakamiya Shuzo so far, and it is necessary to choose another yeast that produces less ethyl caproate (apple flavor) and more aroma. The koji part uses the same temperature curve as the koji used by Daiginjo to make koji. Although the sake is Junmai ginjo, it is as labor-intensive as that of daiginjo.
For the discussion and development process of product planning, please refer to the content of the group fundraising project . The students who participated in this project did not like the taste of traditional Japanese sake. They were also looking for a new style of Japanese sake with a different tone from the gorgeous aroma that overseas markets liked. The final decision was "refreshing and neat flavor". The aftertaste is a faint fragrance, even if they don't like it Traditional people can also drink easily. Regardless of whether it is a new taste that Japanese sake and foreign sake have not had so far, but there are many newly created Japanese sake that emphasize that they are refreshing and neat flavors (to the point that Shumiao feels that he has been copying and pasting), which may reflect the fact that The pursuit of life atmosphere in the hearts of Japanese adults, right?
