Gin Tasting Experience: How to Appreciate Craft Gin
Gin drinking is not about guessing random botanicals or treating your glass like a test you did not study for. It is about slowing down long enough to understand what is in front of you and why it tastes the way it does. At Hush & Whisper Distilling Co., every bottle starts well before it […]The post Gin Tasting Experience: How to Appreciate Craft Gin appeared first on Hush and Whisper Distilling Co .

The Case for Keeping Tasting Notes Honest
There's a point in every taster's journey where the temptation to write notes that match the consensus gets very strong. Resisting that temptation is the single biggest thing you can do to improve as a taster.

Prunier XO: Reimagining a Classic | Cognac Expert Blog
Cognac has its Big four houses, the pillars for the spirit category which are present in every corner of the world. But if we ignore those houses, we are left with a multitude of small producers – negociants and grower-distillers – which form an elite and ultra qualitative tier of Cognac house. Cognac Prunier sits [...]

Comte Armand – A Vertical of Pommard Clos des Epeneaux
A ‘flight’ not to be missed. Vintages 2017 to 1990 Recently, we were fortunate to be approached by a long-standing (and very generous) customer to taste through a flight of vintages (with the 1990 thrown in from Charles Lea’s own cellar) from an estate that has featured in almost every Burgundy offer we have published […]

2021 Bordeaux En Primeur | Pauillac
Great old, grand old Pauillac. The most revered appellation in the Médoc felt more like it had gone back in time than perhaps any other area. The wines were generally very lean and precise – Merlot, again, suffered a fair bit up here and, with the wines usually Cabernet focussed anyway, it meant that these […]

2021 Bordeaux En Primeur | Margaux
I have a soft spot for Margaux. I thought it was worth prefacing everything you’re going to read with this – The feelings I have for Margaux are along the lines of the ones I have for great Burgundy. On the face of things, it’s a pretty toxic relationship (for starters I’m not sure if […]

2021 Bordeaux En Primeur | Pessac-Léognan
Pessac-Leognan is a slightly peculiar place. You start in the city – Carmes Haut Brion, it’s fair to say, is quite literally an ‘urban winery’, such is its proximity to the hustle and bustle of Bordeaux. Slowly you start to drift out, Haut-Brion & La Mission, two absolutely stunning Châteaux, appear almost out of nowhere, […]

2021 Bordeaux En Primeur | Saint-Émilion
Did Merlot suffer in Saint Émilion? Yes, is the short answer, but it was quite terroir dependent and also seemed less impacted than their left bank cousins. The running theme of the 2021 Bordeaux vintage was hard work – sometimes you question a bit of rhetoric, arching an eyebrow toward a statement which seems to […]

2021 Bordeaux En Primeur | Pomerol
How on earth to summarise a vintage by appellation, which more or totally defied homogeneity? I’m going to try my best, almost solely using our own meandering experience and stack of tasting notes. Luckily Pomerol, which is where we began, makes is rather easier than most. If someone were to ask me to fill in […]

2022 Spring Tasting | Highlights
‘Our first proper tasting for ages, and I was unable to attend having contracted Covid, (the reason for the long hiatus since our well-attended Italian tasting in March 2020). This was particularly galling after I had helped organise the attendance of some of the winemakers, notably producers of three new grower Champagnes who I had […]
