Don Perignon 2002


People says there is about 43,000,000 tiny bubbles in a bottle of Don Perignon, I have tried but no way to find so many.. anyway the Champange is best of all, of course that is not as good as year 1996, 1973...
Anyway, it's bottle that we should open with good friends. This Restaurant the guy does not know how to open it and it popped out about 10% of the liquid and the cork jet up sky high with sound of a small motar!
Anyway, the restauarnat should teach them how to open a bottle of decent Champange properly.

Chateau Angelus in Casino Royale


Someone from Chateau Angelus must have paid million dollar in order that Daniel Craig put the Angelus Label right in front of the Camera? Is it too obvious?

Angelus is a Premier grand Cru Class from Saint Emilion,  especially 1989. Moreover, price is not that untouchable!

Korean Ginsen rice wine



Honesty, when I first saw it, it was not pleasant to look at, the wine is chalky and thick, but once i tasted it!
I found that is very good for Korean roasted beef in Summer. Korean used to take it with bowl, holding it with one hand and drink with big mouthful. The are pleased to be serve full on the bowl as a kind of respect.

The alcohol content is somewhat liek red wine:12%.
It is sweet, served cold and highly recommended with Korean and korean Food! of course, if the Korean Movie star is there, the taste will be even perfect...

Balvenie 1964 at HKIA

I came HKD$1across this great Bottle and It seems to me I could smell the scent of the Whisky form the glasses... Well, I do think that oce you have got th budget, go and try, I ahve not tested it as I am not yet a fan of Whisky.

This unique cask, Number 10378 from 1964, has matured to perfection at The Balvenie Distillery, and is extremely rare, offering connoisseurs a whisky of a lifetime.
The 1964 cask, personally selected by The Balvenie Malt Master, rested in a single oak cask for over 40 years at The Balvenie Distillery in Speyside, Scotland. With only 151 bottles forthcoming, The Balvenie 1964 is a rarity. Look at the price tag HKD$108,000.00! Last Customer was a Chinese, he bought it with cash!
