And back to the exciting world of whisky... On Friday I had a tasting and pairing session with the Glenmorangie Brand ambassador. On Tuesday, the fascinating Glenmrangie Signet is launched in Bascule, an exclusive tasting with our whisky members. What makes this dram so fascinating? The malted Barley is roasted, unlike all other whiskies. It gives it a deep, rich complex character, layered with a multitude of coffee, toasty warm spicy notes, that in my mind beats most Highland drams...
So the tasting meeting was set for 11 am, we sat outside Bascule overlooking the yachts and boats on display, with a variety of chocolate, coffee, spices, and of course Glenmorangie Signet.With quite a few odd looks from passers by, we started dipping dark chocolate into a selection of spices,sipping coffee and Signet, we were blown away by how easily this malt pairs with all the elements.So, after a very successful morning, the tasting is set and organized, Bascule will be the first bar in SA to offer this delightful dram.Can't wait for Tuesday... Whisky members, get ready to be blown away!
And then, last night Bascule started it's rocking 10th Birthday, I must admit, I have never been at a 10th Birthday that looked like so much fun... Awesome music duo, Rus Nerwich and DJ Leighton, whisky at low, low , low prices and cocktails at R25 , I really did wish I was a guest, not a Bascule employee...
Bring on the next 9 days!!!
