A few weeks ago we immersed ourselves in the world of the Balvenie whisky house thanks to Esprit Degustation.
Launched by Lixir in April 2010, Esprit Dégustation aims to democratize spirits tasting and open it up to all connoisseurs and enthusiasts.
The website offers a universe for each spirit (whisky, cognac, champagne, vodka, gin, rum, etc.). The site features organoleptic characteristics of different spirits brands, their production methods, and expert advice from specialists, including Fabrice Jarlaud, spirits specialist at Lavinia, who shares his tips through videos.
To extend the experience and perfect the art of tasting, web users can become Club members and benefit from exclusive advantages, such as participation in private tasting evenings. The Club’s newsletter keeps them informed of forthcoming evenings, provides photos of previous tastings, and enriches their knowledge of the world of spirits, thanks to Spirits News.
Those who don’t know where to start can finally find on the site a tool to find the product that suits them, thanks to a selection of gustatory, olfactory and visual criteria that they wish to find. A useful tool that offers real possibilities for novices and connoisseurs alike!
CLUB TASTINGS
Beyond a journey to the heart of the product, the autumnal flavors of a great whisky, the gourmet notes of a preciously preserved cognac, the freshness of a vodka frappe or the spicy scents of an exotic rum; these tastings enable participants to enrich their knowledge of the product’s manufacture, origins and history.
TASTING VIDEOS
A veritable primer on good tasting practices, the Club Esprit Dégustation website provides an introduction to the best ways to enjoy each type of spirit. Which glass to choose for which spirit? What are the pitfalls to avoid? What are the simple gestures to take full advantage of flavors and recognize aromas?
