Inquiring about Iwate Prefecture, the hometown of mountain grapes In Iwate Kurekuji City, one of the production areas, mountain grapes have been loved for a long time. Wild mountain grapes, which prefer dry and cold regions, bear abundant fruit in the mountains. We asked Mr. Sasaki, who handles everything from cultivation of mountain grapes to juice production.
I grow them on sunny slopes, spacing out trees, and growing them as close to nature as possible. Pesticide-free cultivation for 40 years. Branches are pruned frequently, and everything from harvesting to harvesting is done by hand.
The harvested mountain grapes are transported to the factory while they are still fresh and the juice is squeezed. By squeezing it with the skin, it is rich in nutrients and bright pigments contained in the skin. By the way, the skin, seeds, and branches after squeezing are reused in mountain vineyards as organic fertilizer.
After that, it is aged for three years to give it a mellow taste with less astringency. It is a very time-consuming and valuable mountain grape juice.
Domestic mountain grapes are very nutritious. Compared to ordinary grapes, the iron content is about 6.5 times that and the calcium content is about 6 times. In addition, it is rich in vitamin B6, which is good for beautiful skin, polyphenols, anthocyanins, resveratrol, and catechins, which have an unchasing effect. In the past, a doctor in the local area advised pregnant women to drink mountain grape juice. It is full of ingredients that are not only good for pregnant women but also for women.
