00:01.0
00:04.5
It's a dark and stormy night
00:17.5
00:18.2
Merry Christmas
00:18.3
00:20.3
and welcome to December 2nd
00:20.4
00:21.9
for the whisky christmas calendar
00:22.0
00:25.5
with the Boss, Karma and me
00:26.2
00:29.2
at this point we need to figure out a name
00:29.3
00:30.8
'cause a christmas calendar needs a name
00:30.9
00:32.6
just like 'The Ship in the Sign Forest'
00:32.7
00:33.7
and 'Teddy՚s Christmas Journey'
00:33.8
00:34.7
and what not
00:34.8
00:37.2
Let's come with some suggestions now,
00:37.3
00:39.4
for Boss's Christmas Calendar
00:39.5
00:43.0
before we move on
00:46.3
00:48.3
Whisy Oak Mountain
00:51.5
00:53.5
Best heads up ever
00:54.6
00:57.0
Casper, you go first, I'll think
00:57.1
00:59.8
Funny... I thought about the same name
00:59.9
01:01.6
I have a brilliant idea
01:01.7
01:03.4
We call it what the Boss decides
01:06.1
01:07.6
Stop doing that!
01:07.7
01:09.6
I hate decorations
01:09.7
01:12.3
A very merry 2nd December
01:12.4
01:14.5
We're about to open door number 2
01:14.6
01:16.4
in our whisky advent calendar
01:16.5
01:20.1
It's a Ben Riach 15 years
01:20.2
01:23.4
on Pedro Ximenez sherry cask
01:28.2
01:30.1
and... it's very delicious
01:30.2
01:33.1
I bought it on auction in England
01:33.2
01:35.9
as said, 15 years
01:37.4
01:41.1
And that is superb time to bottle, 46-48%
01:41.2
01:44.0
you get a kick, and there's plenty of taste
01:44.1
01:49.3
It's been, probably about 12 years on bourbon cask
01:49.4
01:54.2
then on sherry cask from Pedro Ximenez
01:54.3
01:57.0
from Javes in Spain
01:57.1
01:59.5
So, it's been both on bourbon and sherry cask?
01:59.6
02:02.8
Damn, no, it read JEREZ
02:02.9
02:06.0
The sherry impact _cannot_ be missed
02:06.1
02:10.9
this you will smell
02:11.0
02:14.2
it comes out syrup like
02:14.3
02:16.7
So, you can actually say it contains fruit?
02:16.8
02:17.8
Yes, you can
02:19.0
02:20.9
But.. there's fruit in it
02:21.0
02:22.1
just because it's been sherry casked
02:22.2
02:27.0
But.. sherry is..
02:27.1
02:28.8
.. sort of cream for whisky!
02:30.9
02:32.9
It's put on sherry cask to round off the taste
02:34.1
02:36.1
So the 46% will be well hidden
02:36.6
02:38.2
in the sherry
02:38.8
02:41.2
it's from the Speyside area
02:41.3
02:43.7
right in the middle of Scotland
02:43.8
02:45.1
where there's a lot of distilleries
02:45.2
02:47.2
Where do they make the best whisky?
02:47.3
02:49.5
I would say the Highland area
02:49.6
02:51.4
and Speyside
02:51.5
02:54.6
Speyside is definitely my favourite
02:54.7
02:57.3
Scotland is divided into 5 whisky regions
02:57.4
03:00.7
And this one is a bit darker than the one yesterday
03:00.8
03:04.0
Yes, it's the sherry cask you're seeing
03:04.1
03:05.5
A bit amber
03:05.6
03:08.9
Yes, the longer on sherry cask, the darker
03:09.0
03:09.7
Let's smell it
03:14.9
03:16.2
You'll immediately sense that it's sweet
03:16.3
03:17.4
It has a more heavy smell
03:20.0
03:27.0
we've also got raisins, prunes and ehmm... red berries
03:27.1
03:28.6
it's a bit christmasy, actually
03:28.7
03:32.6
You should try to find the roasted rye bread
03:32.7
03:35.2
Am I supposed to put my nose all way down?
03:35.9
03:37.9
Yup, I put the cooker hood on it
03:39.1
03:41.0
Rye bread - you might not find it
03:41.1
03:42.2
it's not that important
03:43.8
03:44.8
Let's be clear
03:44.9
03:48.6
even though you're a bit a prankster
03:48.7
03:53.5
you will not ask me to find a smell
03:53.6
03:54.6
that is not there?
03:55.3
03:59.1
So, everything you say about the whisky is correct?
03:59.2
03:59.8
I think you can trust him
03:59.9
04:03.4
I might be a prankster at times,
04:03.5
04:05.7
playfull, some might say
04:08.0
04:12.8
when it comes to whisky, I'm pretty geeky
04:12.9
04:13.2
That's good
04:13.3
04:14.6
.. and more serious
04:15.4
04:17.7
I'm also seeing a whole new side of you
04:17.8
04:18.4
it's fantastic
04:18.5
04:19.0
I think it's wonderful
04:19.1
04:21.1
So, let's taste her
04:21.2
04:21.9
Yup, cheers!
04:22.0
04:22.5
and merry christmas
04:23.3
04:26.2
5-10 seconds, french kissing!
04:39.1
04:42.7
[I have no clue what he's saying]
04:44.0
04:45.8
and out through the nose
04:45.9
04:46.9
I was about to say that
04:47.0
04:50.3
Super soft, balanced
04:50.4
04:54.3
Honey, and then it dries our like a dry redwine
04:54.4
04:56.2
Soft? how do you define soft?
04:56.3
04:57.8
just to calibrate...
04:57.9
05:00.0
Soft is easy to drink
05:00.1
05:02.1
that silk feeling in your mouth
05:02.2
05:03.5
delivered by the sherry infusion
05:03.6
05:04.8
So, when you drink this
05:04.9
05:07.0
you have a 'silk feeling' in your mouth?
05:07.1
05:10.5
I have a fully soft and delicious feeling, yes
05:11.1
05:13.3
For me, the heart skips a few beats..
05:15.2
05:17.1
I get that a lot
05:21.1
05:24.9
I think we should finish this one
05:25.0
05:26.3
Do you have any questions?
05:27.0
05:30.0
I'd like to know a bit more about this sherry
05:32.0
05:32.9
It's cherry, right?
05:36.2
05:38.5
You've said it was, all along
05:38.6
05:40.9
Sherry is a dessert wine
05:44.5
05:46.2
Made of cherry?
05:48.9
05:52.7
Let's just rewind the discussion
05:53.5
05:56.3
So, the sherry is made on these huge casks
05:56.4
05:59.0
and afterwards the casks are sent to Scotland
05:59.1
06:03.9
then the scottish pour whisky on them
06:04.0
06:07.5
and the whisky thus pulls sherry taste from the casks
06:09.0
06:12.3
Smell, smell, smell
06:15.1
06:16.5
I'm just gonna say something
06:16.6
06:20.5
whisky, is smells really good
06:20.9
06:24.5
It really strong to drink
06:24.6
06:25.5
but it smells really good
06:25.6
06:29.3
I seem to recognise a hint of something
06:29.4
06:31.3
It's fried ryebread
06:31.4
06:32.8
We can call it that
06:32.9
06:34.4
There's no fried ryebread here
06:34.5
06:38.5
Then it likely raisins you can taste
06:38.6
06:41.7
or smell; raisins and prunes
06:43.5
06:45.5
It's a genuine Christmas whisky
06:46.1
06:48.7
You'd want to shove it up a duck's arse
06:49.3
06:50.6
or your grandma
06:53.4
06:55.7
thinking aloud again
06:56.8
06:58.9
Let's do it
07:11.3
07:13.9
Medium long, nice after taste
07:14.0
07:17.6
Raisins and prunes are very clear here
07:17.7
07:20.3
There's no fucking rasins, nor prunes
07:20.4
07:21.4
There's alcohol..
07:21.5
07:22.5
Yes, there is
07:22.6
07:25.8
Silky, perhaps not
07:25.9
07:27.4
Nah, maybe not
07:32.2
07:33.4
Pure pleasure
07:33.5
07:35.8
It's a great whisky for
07:35.9
07:36.4
everything?
07:36.5
07:38.6
yes, a good book for example
07:38.7
07:42.1
What kind of book?
07:42.2
07:45.0
I've read...
07:45.1
07:46.4
Adult Mags?
07:46.5
07:51.3
Some book..
07:51.4
07:55.4
This was a truly splendid whisky
07:55.7
07:56.9
I was not impressed
07:57.0
07:57.6
You didn't like it?
07:58.3
08:01.4
Too much power, really
08:01.5
08:02.1
Too much power...
08:02.2
08:03.2
Too much silk
08:03.3
08:05.0
I don't like silk
08:05.1
08:09.7
Now you need to find some decorations for the table
08:09.8
08:12.3
Yes! I love christmas decorations
08:12.4
08:13.1
It's stupidly annoying
08:13.2
08:14.7
What? the christmas decorations?
08:17.5
08:18.9
You can hate Christmas
08:19.0
08:21.5
But this decoration you need to be gentle with
08:21.6
08:23.3
because it's not mine
08:23.4
08:24.4
not mine either
08:24.9
08:27.3
Perhaps you have some cones in the garden?
08:27.4
08:30.1
But are these cones?
08:30.2
08:31.8
Yes, they're real
08:31.9
08:32.6
How come it looks like something a german pulled out of this arse?
08:32.7
08:34.7
a german pulled out of this arse?
08:36.3
08:37.1
We need to wrap it up
08:37.2
08:38.8
Casper, you'll do it
08:38.9
08:39.9
Is the camera still on?
08:40.6
08:41.7
We need to end this episode
08:43.3
08:44.3
Merry Christmas!
