Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
certainly ‘from the same family’ but simpler and grainier, without these nice oaky tones we had in its older siblings. Apple skins, porridge, cereals, praline, vanilla crème… Something a little farmy in the background. Gentle but less complex, uncomplicated but enjoyable
restaurant Palate
now it’s completely different, I guess the other distilleries start to show off. Something slightly waxy and smoky mixed with sweet toffee and notes of cappuccino at the attack, but the middle is sort of weak and curiously papery despite a certain oiliness. Yet, the finish is bolder again, more satisfying and rather coating, with something ‘funny’ persisting (olive oil? Hazelnut oil?) and finally a little fruit (figs). No winner but not worth the scandal either. We’ve had lots of worse singles. 76 points . By the way, I’ve seen that some crook already tried to sell this one for 75 euros on the Web – yes, professional sellers. I’m sorry, but I'd say f*ck ‘m! MUSIC – Recommended listening - It's Sunday, we go classical and Lebanese with Sister Marie Keyrouz singing the Maronite (Catholic Arab) traditional Ya umma-l-lah.mp3 . No comment needed - except that you should buy her beautiful music. July 22, 2006 CRAZY WHISKY ADS - FUNNY PARODY, LAZY ADVERTISING OR PLAIN PLAGIARISM? Left, TV spot for Chanel Egoiste perfume, 1990 - Right, web video clip for Ardbeg 1965 , 2006. Yes, did you see the movie for that new official Ardbeg 1965 yet? Please watch it (you'll need Flash) and then have a look at the 1990 French TV ad for Chanel. Amazing, isn't it? And no, Chanel does not belong to LVMH...
