L
ife is all about an experience,
a time shared with special
people...it’s a vibe. It’s
building a moment in strokes
of careful thought and consideration,
with moments of passion – that
intertwine us. This best describes
what the Valentines season should be
about. And this is why we are leaving
all the cliché valentine treats in 2014.
Yes, whiskey is quite an intimate
drink - put aside the serious
business men sitting alongside
the fire place impression. It can
actually be used as form of festive
mixing and a little intellectual
foreplay. Stuck on just the right
selection to treat your partner with?
We invite you to an 1879 legacy,
a blend of elegant simplicity
undergoing new changes: Black
bottle Whiskey.
Described as ‘silky, mellow,
fruity with balanced smoky
peaty flavours with sweet oak
and heather honey.’ Black Bottle
whiskey presents a delicate
blended scotch with exotic
tastes mild enough for a ‘real
mans’ man, also offering a gentle
lingering smokiness for the deluxe
tenacious woman. Not only does
it taste exceptional, its black
glass packaging and gold label is
a sexy and elegant win. A dinner
for two accompanied by a scotch,
might want to be considered for a
romantic evening.
Make an exclusive night out of
the delicious Cocktail blends
Black bottle offers on their site.
