Tasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
extremely present, starting almost hot, with lots of sherry as expected. It’s the ‘farmy’ kind of sherry, with whiffs of manure and overripe oranges but it’s most enjoyable even if untamed. Notes of fir honey, hot ham, smoked tea, bitter caramel, old rancio… Quite complex yet coherent and probably a little more interesting than the OB. Keeps developing on both rubber and cough syrup, black nougat and hints of dried chervil and finally fresh herbs, interestingly (parsley and chive). Very nice
restaurant Palate
a rough and powerful but also sweet and coating attack, the whole being quick to become rounder. Notes of salted orange marmalade (don’t try that at home), all sorts of cooked fruits and then lots of pepper and something very minty and even resinous in the background. Also notes of raspberry drops and strawberry liqueur mixed with a little rum. The finish is long, still quite hot and a tad rubbery, on toffee and notes of eau de vie (arak?) Lots of oomph in any case. 89 points . PETE McPEAT AND JACK WASHBACK on vacation in Saint-Tropez MUSIC – Recommended listening - I seem to remember my first post about Susana Seivane in 2004 pulled quite some enamoured comments, especially from Holland ;-). So, time to have a little more by the Gallician piper, like for instance the Pasacorredoiras de Ponteareas.mp3 . Please buy Susana Seivane's music and go to her shows! July 11, 2006 MUSIC AND WHISKY INTERVIEW - NOWHERE MAN AND A WHISKEY GIRL It wouldn’t be completely honest to say that I didn’t start to take an interest in this small band from Bisbee, Arizona because of its name, but believe me, I wouldn’t have decided to contact them for an interview if what I could hear of their music, thanks to the mp3’s on their website, hadn’t sounded pretty excellent to my ears. And, to be even more honest, much more advanced than what I had been exposed to last time I toured the Grand Canyon state on my motorbike with a few friends. Yes, Steppenwolf, yes, Blue Oyster Cult, yes, countless country music ‘stars’ who were unknown to me - remember I’m from Old Europe - but who were sounding very ‘Sunday afternoon BBQ’… plus, okay, the great, great Jerry Garcia. Now, I must say I loved the place and its friendly inhabitants, so I got very happy when Amy and Derrick Ross, aka ‘Nowhere Man and a Whiskey Girl’, accepted to answer Whiskyfun’s ritual and sometimes tricky questions... Serge: Tell us briefly about what you do, music-wise. Amy and Derrick: Well, Amy plays piano and sings and Derrick p
