Raising a toast

A perfect time to pause and taste the flavours
By IANSlife

January 05, 2023 (IANSlife) A new year calls for a new tipple, before you settle in to your drink for the year, try out these options from Diageo India.

BLACK DOG MILLARD’S PRIVATE RESERVE 14YO
The Black Dog Millard’s Private Reserve 14YO, a new addition to the world of Black Dog, is a rare, complex yet incomparably smooth blended scotch whisky. You can discover delicate hints of vanilla and lightly toasted oak in this luxurious variant. Gentle underlying citrus flavour from the 200-year-old Linkwood distillery located in the heart of Speyside accentuates the taste profile of Black Dog.

Why this is the one: Knowing when to pause is an art – a precious moment to stop, take stock and reconnect before moving forward. Black Dog’s founder Sir Walter Millard mastered this art of pausing through his passion for fly fishing, resulting in the creation of what we know as Black Dog Scotch Whisky, a liquid matured in its fullness of time. As a tribute to its founder, Black Dog Millard’s Private Reserve 14YO is born out of that sense of pausing and a thirst to bring alive a perfectly balanced scotch by carefully aging it for 14 years, no more, no less. It is a blended scotch that is to savoured and enjoyed. Best Enjoyed: Enjoy Black Dog 14YO Millard’s Private Reserve by letting it sit for 14seconds which symbioses 14 years of maturation.

For decades, certainly for the 20 years leading up to the 2006 gin boom, Gordon’s was the one and only name people would instantly associate with gin and it’s still beloved by its many passionate supporters.
