stones, rocks, old engine, then chestnut purée and silverware, zwetschke pie and old copper coins, soot and proper tomato sauce… Well indeed this is pretty decadent, we're reminded of some much, much older bottlings of HP. Not only HP, to tell you the truth, you'd almost believe this an old dumpy C/S by CAD. That's probably the metals in there. With water: metal polish, metal polish, and metal polish. Plus Bolognese sauce and a drop of Maggi. We do know that the good folks at Decadent Drinks are huge fans of Maggi
restaurant Palate
oh very good, proper sherry on proper HP. It's just that it is a wee bit too strong, biting, and almost aggressive. But we have a solution at hand… With water: this is where sherried stuffs often get awry, but this one holds the road, with good smoke, vegetables, tobaccos and this wee gamey side. A drop of kirschwasser – which would always improve any dishes anyway, just like good grappa. Something I learnt at Barmetro's in Milano, quite some years ago. Hey let's try that, add a drop of grappa or marc or kirschwasser to any junk food – indeed, even to a Big Mac - and presto, enter the amazing world of high gastronomy! But back to this HP, it is very good indeed
timer Finish
long and good. A touch of fresh oak in the aftertaste
