Klik de foto voor gedetailleerde info over standhouders en masterclasses

Naar jaarlijkse traditie trekken we naar hét spirit festival van België en dan nog wel in ons eigen stad Brussel. Voor alle nieuwe leden van DéGust kan het lidgeld de inkom van het festival bekostigen. Dit evenement is hét moment bij uitstek om je te verdiepen in een zeer breed assortiment van sterke dranken, gaande van Whisky over Armagnac, Calvados, Cognac tot Rum. Ook versterkte wijnen zoals Porto of Sherry zijn hier te vinden.

Voor mensen die hun eerste stappen zetten in de wereld van sterk gestookte dranken kan dit alles wat overdonderend zijn en weet je vaak niet waar te beginnen. Uiteraard kan je altijd op goed geluk erin duiken, maar mijn persoonlijke ervaring is dat met een goede introductie de interesse, de passie, het plezier en het genot sneller gevonden wordt.

Dus voor al de geïnteresseerden wordt nog snel lid van DéGust en kom mee op een uitmuntend, degustatief namiddagje in Brussel!

FABLE Whisky

Fable Whisky will offer you some lesser known whisky. Most of these brands are being used for blended scotch. This might not sound all that great, but realise that these brands are chosen to give body and character to the blend with only a ‘small’ percentage of malt whisky being used. This means that these brands have some strong flavours and aroma’s to offer, if presented as a Single Malt.

Fable offers straight forward whisky at high proof. All bottles are of similar age and have been matured on ex-bourbon casks. So you get your classic whisky, which reflects very well the character of the distillery. Because of the similar ages you are able to compare these distillery characters to one and another.

The full FABLE story is available (Back orders are possible).

Come visit us at WHISKE

On Sunday 11th September 2022 Whisky à la Belge will be at WHISKE, a whisky and spirits festival in the Kempen in Belgium. There are over 40 stands of importers, distributors, producers,… We will be at the stand of Sven Cipido Whisky Consultancy .

It will be the first festival we join after we launched our first edition Arran à la Belge a few years back at MEUG Festival. So dare to think out of the box and come and try Glen Moray finished on a Kriek Cantillon Lambiek cask. We can also talk about my new project, BOX BIZAR, which is underconstruction in Sint-Genesius-Rode.

Glengyle vs Springbank

a lot a people are not that familiar with Glengyle distillery, while most of you will have heard or is even a big fan of Springbank. It’ s a bit strange and a pity as I find Kilkerran Scotch whisky just as good a product as Springbank, if not even better. both distilleries are part of the same family.

The Springbank team does the distilling of Kilkerran Scotch at Glengyle distillery for only a few months a year. One of the big difference between Springbank whisky and Kilkerran whisky is the upward line-arm in Glengyle distillery. This makes the whisky lighter in texture, more elegant, but still full of flavor.

These next ones are not the classic range and are heavily peated whiskies with a punch. Try them, you will not be disappointed.
