Q3. What is Kashiwa Roshu Co., Ltd.?

Since it was founded in 1751 (the first year of the Holy calendar), it has gone through the rapidly changing history of Echigo Nagaoka (Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture) and is responsible for the food culture of sake.

Illustration of a liquor store at the seasideIn 1882, the brewery was taken over by the Makino family, feudal lords of Nagaoka, from whom the name "Kashiwa-ro" originated, and the use of the family's "three oaks" crest and the product name "Kashiwa-ro" were inherited. Although the people involved in sake brewing have changed over time, the attitude of "making delicious sake that will please many people" has been consistently passed down to the present day. Taking advantage of this tradition as the best quality, the brewery brews "Gohyakumangoku", Niigata's rice variety suitable for sake brewing, as the main ingredient, and in a blessed environment, in harmony with the skills of the Echigo Toji and modern brewing technology, to brew the light, dry sake that is the characteristic of "Kashiwa-ro". The products of Kashiwa-ro Sake Brewery, which are mainly designated sake, have come to be supported by drinkers from all over Japan, from the north to the south, as sake that has been carefully sent out to the world by a famous Niigata brewery.

Q4. What are the characteristics of wine?

The red wine is domestically produced, and the white wine is imported directly from Italy.

【Red wine】

Vine and fruit We use domestic red wine carefully selected by our sommelier as a bottle suitable for a celebratory occasion. This natural wine is made using large grapes carefully grown at Ishikawa Vineyard in Yahiko Village, Niigata Prefecture, and brewed at a small winery called L'Escargot in Nishikan Ward, Niigata City, with an unfiltered finish that makes the most of the natural power of the grapes. About the taste In addition to a gentle mouthfeel with a juicy feel, it is characterized by a firm acidity and light astringency. The fresh fruitiness unique to unfiltered wine and a refreshing dry taste spread in your mouth. The acidity is more pronounced than in regular red wines, so it goes great with fatty dishes and strong-flavored Japanese food. It has a light sweetness and a refreshing taste, so it is recommended for those who like acidic red wines and those who like natural wines.

【White wine】

A white wine with a gorgeous, fruity aroma and a refreshing yet mellow, long finish. It is dry, fresh, sour and astringent, and has a tireless taste, so it goes well with appetizers and fish dishes. By all means, please cool well.

【sparkling wine】

It is sparkling wine of Prosecco representing Italy. The mouthfeel is refreshing, fruity and easy to drink with a good aftertaste, so you can enjoy it as an aperitif like champagne, and the marriage with food is the best.

(※1) Echigo Shirayukitake mushrooms are a completely new mushroom found in the snowy Uonuma area of Niigata Prefecture, the first of its kind in Japan. They are characterized by the presence of an ingredient called Basidiomycetes-X (※2). (※2) Basidiomycetes-X mushrooms have been cultivated in Niigata Prefecture since the early 2000s as edible "white truffles," but were later discovered to be a new species of mushroom. They have a high beta-glucan content of 21%, making them stand out from many other mushrooms. Since then, research has progressed rapidly. Experiments on mice were conducted by Professor Tetsuya Konishi of the Food Function and Analytical Chemistry Laboratory, Faculty of Applied Life Sciences, Niigata University of Pharmacy, and it was confirmed that they have extremely high antioxidant activity that eliminates active oxygen (announced at the 05th Japan Food Factor Academic Society held in 10 and the 27th Free Radical Society in the same year). Research at St. Marianna University School of Medicine has also confirmed that they have immune-regulating functions such as lymphocyte activation. Based on these results, it is expected that applications and development in many fields will progress in the future. (Source: Wikipedia)
