Shine Muscat, often nicknamed the “Queen of Muscats,” has distinctive characteristics that set it apart from other types of grapes. The skin is light green to yellowish in color which is thin and edible, providing convenience for consumers.
In Japanese culture, although consumers generally peel the skin of local grapes, the skin of Shine Muscat is quite soft and does not have an astringent taste so it can be eaten directly with the flesh.
The texture of the flesh itself is thick, juicy, and has a distinctive sweet taste, with a sugar content of 20 to 25 Brix, making it very sweet and refreshing with a low acidity level.
The factor that supports Shine Muscat’s unique taste is its growing environment. The Nagano region, with its widely varying day-night temperatures and well-drained soil, allows for a concentration of sweetness in this grape.
The soil conditions in the Kofu valley located in Yamanashi also contribute to the distinctive taste of Shine Muscat, where clean mountain water and abundant sunlight create an ideal environment for this grape to grow.
Another feature of Shine Muscat is its strong and pleasant aroma, emitting fresh floral and fruity notes when the grapes are ripe.
This attractive aroma, plus its intense sweet taste and distinctive crunchy texture, makes Shine Muscat not only popular as a fruit eaten fresh but also as a decoration on dessert dishes such as tarts and parfaits.
