Rebirth: Japanese investor

   Chapter 515 Whiskey

   At nine o'clock this evening, a high-end bar in Roppongi, Minato Ward. There is neither dynamic music nor crazy crowds in this bar.

   The people who enter this high-end bar are often regarded as the elite of society. This is where they chat, talk about things, enjoy the taste of life, de-stress and more.

   Masayoshi Kishimoto had an informal meeting with the president of Wenyi Chunqiu Publishing House, and the person who facilitated the two of them to meet directly this time was Ryosuke Natsume.

  Kishimoto Masayoshi asked for two kinds of whisky from Japan, one bottle of Hakushu 18 years old and the other bottle of Yoichi 20 years old. To this end, the store also took the initiative to send them a snack platter and a fruit platter.

  “Yoichi single malt whisky is far less famous than Hakushu single malt whisky. However, Yoichi single malt whisky is the closest to Scotch single malt whisky.

The production process of   Yoichi whisky is also completely different from that of Hakushu whisky. It has a very strong taste, and it is not at all like the elegant taste of Hakushu whisky that is more in line with the Orientals.

   Well-known whiskies that are over 20 years old, they are all very good whiskies. Of course, this bottle of Hakushu 18-year-old is also quite a good whisky.

   As far as my personal taste is concerned, I like Hakushu whisky the most. However, it is also a good choice to drink Yoichi whisky once in a while. "

   Kishimoto Masayoshi doesn't need to introduce it like this, the other party also knows more or less. The reason why he did this was to show that he was not an investor without taste, but only money.

   "From this point of view, Chairman Kishimoto has a lot of research experience on whisky. I have never thought that Japanese whisky is weaker than Scotch whisky.

   The reason why many people think that Scotch whisky is better than Japanese whisky is that the former has a long history of whisky culture.

   Furthermore, when Japan was making whisky back then, it was a complete set of Scotch whisky-making craftsmanship brought to Japan.

   I think we, an imitator and a latecomer, can't compare to Scotland. "The president of Wenyi Chunqiu is also a whisky lover.

   "Actually, the Japanese whisky that was made according to the production process of Scotch whisky was not good. Or it did not meet the taste of the Japanese at the time, and it did not sell well.

   Later, after localization practice, we first started from the wooden barrels for whisky, and then to the selection of water sources... We have today's Japanese whisky.

   Not only that, but the Japanese also added a new way to drink whisky. For example, add ice cubes. "Masayoshi Kishimoto shook the glass with Yoichi single malt whisky in his right hand.

   President Wenyi Chunqiu nodded and said with a smile, "You can also add green tea or black tea."

   "You said that this drinking method is often despised by others, but as long as you are happy, why not?

   And it’s never been said that single malt whisky is better than blended whisky. It mainly depends on personal taste.

  In addition to Japanese whisky and Scotch whisky, American whisky is also one of the three largest whisky countries in the world.

   Personally, I don't like the kind of peated taste that American whiskey expresses. Therefore, there is no in-depth research.

   As far as I know, American Whiskey is divided into Tennessee Whiskey, Rye Whiskey, White Whiskey and so on. Its own feature is the addition of corn.

   This good whiskey is very layered. The aftertaste of the wine in the mouth is quite persistent. Masayoshi Kishimoto took a sip of the whisky from his glass as soon as he raised his head and talked eloquently.

  The president of Wenyi Chunqiu knows that with the social status and strength of the other party, there is absolutely no need to please himself. Or to cater to yourself.

   This is the most personal taste in drinking whisky, not red wine, nor champagne. He is a whisky lover himself, and he immediately develops a sense of intimacy with people who have the same hobby as himself.

This is not something that hits the nail on the head, but the mirror effect in psychology (in the psychology of self-awareness, people think that they can reflect their own image as a mirror because of others' attitudes towards them, and thus form a self-concept. impression, this phenomenon is called the mirror effect.)

   "Some women can make a preliminary judgment on what kind of person the other person is and how much they earn just by walking into a bar to catch a man, and just by looking at what the other person is drinking.

   If she is interested in you, she will naturally approach you and ask you to buy her a drink. " Kishimoto said with a smile.

The director of Wenyi Chunqiu Publishing House was enjoying the contents of the glass, and the more he chatted with him, the more speculative he said: "Johnnie Walker (Scotch blended whisky), Jack Daniels (Tennessee blended whisky), Chivas (Scotch blended whisky), and There are Jumbo whiskies (Scotch blended whiskies), which are the most common stock in the bar, and are very suitable for drinking with black tea, green tea or cola.”

   "You said that some whiskies have an ABV of 40%, while Japanese whiskeys are generally 43% ABV.

   The alcohol content of the Yoichi 20-year-old single malt whisky in my glass is 52%, which is comparable to the general content of Chinese liquor. Of course, whisky can also be up to 60% alcohol. "Kishimoto said slowly.

  The president of Wenyi Chunqiu is very clear-headed and very clear in his heart. This informal meeting between the two will certainly not be just a chat about whisky.

   If it is so simple, then they can really be friends, after all, they have a common hobby. Each other has the economic strength to appreciate all kinds of whisky in this world.

   This is not only a well-known whisky from a big distillery, but also a little-known whisky from a small workshop. The fun that can be obtained is like a woman who suddenly buys something cheap but it is her favorite thing while shopping aimlessly.

  Natsume Ryosuke saw the opportunity and began to help his own president: "In addition to being interested in whisky, our president Kishimoto also has a collection of manuscripts by some great writers."

   "President Kishimoto is really literary. Even someone like me who runs a literary publishing house is ashamed." President Wenyi Chunqiu said bluntly.

   "You are too modest. If you have a chance, you should come to my house to appreciate whether the manuscripts of the great writers that I have received are genuine." Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that he was being polite.

  The president of Wenyi Chunqiu does not believe that the other party will buy counterfeit goods. Those who do investments are not ordinary shrewd and discerning.

   What's more, at a young age, in less than five years, he was able to build a large-scale enterprise with 30,000 employees, which is even more extraordinary and extraordinary.
