The Secret Sauce! From just a handful of ingredients including, of course, a secret one, the Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce we find gracing our tables today has hardly changed from the original blend, which first matured in 1837. The full recipe has been kept hidden for over 160 years. Only 3 or 4 people at a time know what that special secret ingredient that gives it that extra kick is. Developed by chemists Mr Lea & Mr Perrins, they passed the knowledge to their two sons. They in turn passed it on to a select few. Following the Second World War, it was decided that no one person should be aware of the whole secret so it was broken up. They even gave the ingredients code names to secure the secret further! To this day, that entire recipe is still a mystery. ...

Calvados Lecompte 5 is a fruity Calvados with discreet woodiness which compliments the light, lively apple flavours. Before transferring to more mature barrels (known as red barrels) to help bring out its mellow flavours, this Calvados Pays d Auge spends several months in small new oak casks, providing a delicate touch of vanilla. The Cellar Master says: The most fruit-packed Lecompte Calvados. LECOMPTE 5 years old Calvados is a combination of the fruity lightness of the apples with the subtle touch of wood from the small casks it was first aged in. The initial casks are made from moderately toasted French oak which give the spirit a delicate aroma of vanilla. This Pays d' Auge Calvados is further matured in older casks (called russet barrels) to allow the full fruitiness of this exceptional spirit to slowly develop & to blossom. ...

Ledaig Single Malt Scotch Whisky is produced at the Tobermory Distillery, which is the only distillery on the picturesque Hebridean Isle of Mull. Thus, of all the world-famous whisky distilling regions of Scotland (Speyside, Highl&, Islay, the various Islands, Lowl&, Campbeltown) only Tobermory & Ledaig represent an opportunity to experience Malt Whisky from this particular region. Ledaig, unlike Tobermory, is distilled from heavily peated malted barley. During the malting process, burning peat is used to dry the barley in a kiln. The reek from the burning peat is absorbed by the barley through the husk of the grain, & the reek remains through the mashing, fermentation & distillation processes, eventually leading to a superior single malt with a highly distinctive peaty, smoky taste. That malt is Ledaig, a superb, intricate Island Malt Scotch Whisky. ...

Ice cider is unique to Quebec because it depends on an abundant crop of quality apples & winter temperatures that dip well below zero (-25 Deg C). The aromas & flavours are transformed as the apples over-ripened & are then naturally concentrated by the cold. Fermentation of this golden, concentrated must is done slowly at low temperature to allow the subtle flavours to develop. The result is a sweet, complex & intensely fruity nectar that boasts a perfect balance between sugar, acidity & alcohol. Made from Spartan & Empire apples, the Leduc-Piedimonte Ice Cider has a golden straw-coloured hue & pleasant aromas of tangerine, orange zest & green lemon. The palate features flavours of pink grapefruit preserves, with a subtle yet refreshingly bitter. Ice cider can wonderfully replace a fine sweet wine to accompany food or cheeses. ...
