Description

James Suckling Review
Rated 93
A graceful nose of menthol, red currants, orange peel and herbs. The attack is medium-bodied with ripe, velvety, silky tannins, lifted acidity and a savory finish. Precise, with a crunchy style at the end and a lively aftertaste. Drinkable now, but can age.

How to Serve Liquor – Quick Tips

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
