ANS - Distilled Fruits & Blue Suede Shoes
October 2010
Good to be back from Portugal -
I was needed here in my Pub as Mainz 05 lost the match vs. Hamburg while I was away and the blame was put on me being absent.
Yesterday, against the stronger opponent Bayer Leverkusen, Mainz managed to win again ( 8 matches out of 9 now ) and retake the lead in the German Bundesliga.
Next match will be hot again - opponent will be Borussia Dortmund, coached by J. Klopp, the former Mainz coach, a well liked guy here in Mainz.
So I watched the match in my Pub and had some very fatty cheese-hamburger-baguettes as I knew I'd need a good basis for the following Pharmacy smoke.
Andreas had ordered a selection of different fruit spirits from this Alsace distillery :
www.distillerie-mette.com/
And we had a nice time trying all of them out - some 12 odd different sorts of delicious spirits.
Here's what we had :
Lemon - Vielle Mirabelle - Quetsch - Kirsch -Williams Pear - Cafe Arabica - Fleur de Sureau - Griotte - Framboise - Orange - Apricot - Pain d'Epices - Vielle Prune and a few others.
Except for Gingerbread ( Pain d'Epices) and Lemon that were too sweet for me, I tried 5 or 6 and decided that good old traditional Kirsch, Framboise, Mirabelle and Quetsch are still my favorites.
The cigar was a H.Upmann Monarcas from 2001 and later a fantastic, tasty and creamy VR Clasico.
Andreas, again being at his most daring, showed off his new pair of hand-made shoes by Demir Ibrahim from Wiesbaden - in shocking blue suede.
He's giving the village a shot of color now that Autumn is turning into Winter and all is gray.
Here's to blue suede shoes - they rock !
