Pandora Sample Tasting Note by Ho-cheng
這是所謂的Old Fashioned On-Line Tasting, 參加的人會先拿到盲飲的樣品, 自行品飲後將品飲紀錄公開發布, 然後比對其他人的紀錄, 在指定的時間大家一塊討論. Maniacs這次稍稍改良, 參加的八個人中, 共有四對不一樣的樣品, 我們將嘗試去找出跟自己完全一樣的那個組合(人), 預計將在這個週末討論, 並且重複試飲, 看看大家的口感及紀錄的方式. 有點像是測驗, 頗緊張, 因為最近忙, 狀況也不好, 不過蠻好玩的就是了.
Blind #1 – Color: Light yellow. Legs going down quick, quite thin.

不能算是酒展的酒展
兩支重點:
Bruichladdich 15yo 2nd edition (46%, OB, Sauternes finish)
Jim always said the 15yo first edition is his favorite OB. Maybe we should buy half dozen? The second edition is sautern finish, Serge said it is from Chateau d’Yquem and is 50%, but I am not so sure. Brown, very deep sweet. Hint of plum. Sweet at the end. Quite Sautern finish. Score: 84. One point less then the WIP sample.
