BALLANTINE'S NIGHT

JET LAGなんて皆無!
FRIDAY,オンエアもPRIVATEも全開。
普段は蒸留酒を飲まないCINDYですが、素晴らしいウイスキーは、WINEと同じように、食事に合わせても愉しめるのだなあと実感した、そんなイベントに出かけてきました。
代官山のASOのバンケットに使う広間で、180年の伝統を持つスコッチウイスキー、BALLANTINE’Sのテイスティング&ディナー(着席式です)が開催されました。
アンバサダーとして楽しみ方、味わいや歴史などを世界中に広めている、KEN LINDSEY氏が来日。
スコットランドの伝統のキルトで正装。
一度DUBAIでのPARTYでやはりのこ正装の紳士をお見かけした事があったっけ。
昨夜のCINDYはROBERTO CAVALLIのABITO DA SERA・イブニングガウンでした。
さて
テーブルの上にはこんな設えが・・・

12年、17年、21年に30年。
色も味も香りも、質感も異なる、それを実感して行きます。
樽香の違いも。
テイスティングの前に、まずスコットランドの地形などなどから始まって、ウイスキーに関していっぱい知る事が出来ました。そうすると興味もわいてきますよね。

その後、ディナーはASOのシェフがバランタインズに合わせてクリエイトしたメニュー。
3品の短めコースでしたが、このANTIPASTOが印象的なプレゼンテーションでした。

DOLCEは、お残ししちゃった同じテーブルの方々の分も、計3皿頂いちゃった私、もうお腹いーっぱい。

家に帰って、改めて家に何本も有る30年のBALLANTINE’Sに、敬意を表したのでありました・・・
やはり何でも、ホンモノって素晴らしいですね!
