Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
wowie, it’s in the same vein again, with maybe just added notes of coffee but that may well come from the very high alcohol. And also hyper-huge notes of hops, beer, wet wool… But water is needed again of course: well, it got grassier and rougher, maybe sort of ‘duller’, but also really on soaked barley and even more on all sorts of wet mammals (c’mon!) Definitely from the country
restaurant Palate
right, this is really too strong, even if we get nice notes of stone fruit eau-de-vie (kirsch, various plums and, above all, rowan tree). With water: very, very close to the 11yo from Cadenhead’s. The same whisky actually, no need to repeat my silly comments – but my rating: 90 points . (thanks again, Nikos). PETE McPEAT AND JACK WASHBACK in Saint-Tropez MUSIC – Recommended listening: the people at Mulatta Records really know how to pick their artists! This time it's Eleven piece Pan-African band Mandeng Eletrik who are playing Yalayala.mp3 . Entrancing. Please buy their music (reminds me of the XLNT Jephté Guillaume ) August 24, 2007 CONCERT REVIEW - This excellent piece by an undercover reviewer signing himself (or herself?) “The Keefster” was found in our inbox last night… THE REVERB SYNDICATE at Dancing in the Streets , fundraiser for Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation, August 19, 2007 Ottawa loves music outdoors. There’s the Bluesfest (Van Morrison, George Thorogood, White Stripes, Steve Miller etc.) - OK maybe our definition of the blues is as liberal as our marriage laws; then the Jazz Fest (John McLaughlin, Conga Kings, and more), then the Folk Festival (Buffy Sainte Marie, Arrogant Worms, Kristofferson, and on, and on) and for those rainy days, the Chamber Music Festival. Then a whole pile of free one-offs. Tonight, it’s Ashley MacIsaac – enfant horrible (pire que terrible) du cap Breton – and the stage is right at the end of my street, so why not walk down and listen as the savage fiddler tortures the neighbours? There’ll be complaints in Monday’s paper from the same people who bitched when Bob Dylan – yup the real Robert Zimmerman one – kept them up until 10:30 on a work night singing songs practically under their windows as they tried to drift off to sleep. Arriving a few hours early – hey why not grab an Americano on the street – the sounds of Jaguar twang bars and Fender Super Reverbs draw me down to a campy (can you still be camp?) quartet of neo-Ventu
