News, blog articles and event coverage — everything happening at M&P and in the world of wines, spirits and cigars.
Choosing alcohol as a gift is always a challenge. We balance on a fine line between safe banality and the risk of being misunderstood. In an era of ubiquitous availability of luxury goods, the true currency becomes not the price, but the story enclosed in glass. At M&P we believe that good whisky doesn't shout from the shelf with a garish label – it whispers to the connoisseur a promise of experience.
W świecie francuskich alkoholi panuje pewna niesprawiedliwość. Koniak to celebryta – bywa na salonach, błyszczy w teledyskach i zna go każdy. Tymczasem Armaniak, jego starszy o ponad 150 lat brat, siedzi w cieniu dębowych beczek na głębokiej prowincji, uśmiechając się pod wąsem. I wiecie co? Ma ku temu powody. Jeśli koniak jest jak wypolerowany diament, armaniak jest jak surowy kamień szlachetny – pełen charakteru, tekstury i historii, którą można kupować na butelki.
W świecie szlachetnych alkoholi nie ma miejsca na przypadki. Nawet tak drobny detal, jak obecność litery „e” w nazwie na etykiecie, jest deklaracją przynależności. Dla laika to często błąd w druku lub synonim. Dla konesera – pierwsza wskazówka, z czym ma do czynienia. Czy to tylko kwestia ortografii, czy może za różnicą w pisowni kryje się głębsza filozofia smaku?
If the history of whisky were a crime story, the list of suspects would be long, and the evidence – obscured by time (and probably drunk). The Scots and Irish have been disputing the claim to primacy for centuries, outbidding each other with dates, documents and legends. However, the truth about the birth of whisky is far more complex. It's a story of alchemy, religion and chance, which begins in the most unlikely place.
You don't need a cellar or a large budget to start your wine adventure. A dozen or so carefully selected bottles, proper storage space, and a bit of knowledge are enough. In this guide, we suggest which wines to start with, how to store them properly, and how to build your collection step by step so it grows along with your experience.
Jest takie stare powiedzenie w Kentucky: "Każdy bourbon to whisky, ale nie każda whisky to bourbon". Brzmi jak logiczna łamigłówka, ale dla barmana to świętość. Jeśli zamówisz w Stanach "whisky", możesz dostać cokolwiek. Jeśli zamówisz bourbon, wkraczasz na terytorium obwarowane przepisami surowszymi niż te dotyczące produkcji leków. Czy jednak dla przeciętnego pijącego ta różnica ma znaczenie? Ma. I to kolosalne.
Wine can be drunk and drunk. Or rather drunk and tasted. And there's not a shred of snobbery in this. Proper tasting is about being able to appreciate wine, to make use of its potential. Because without the ability to taste properly, it makes absolutely no difference whether we drink a young Rioja for 30 zloty or a grand reserva for 230 zloty. When we don't know how to appreciate good wine, we have no need to buy and try such wine. But then we also don't know how much we're missing out on.
From biodynamics in leading vineyards to the renaissance of red wines from the regent grape variety – Polish winemaking is currently undergoing a quality revolution. Read why domestic labels are increasingly winning with the class of their wine, not just consumer sentiment.
Fortified wine? For many people it's synonymous with a heavy, sweet drink that's only consumed with dessert. Meanwhile, all it takes is trying a dry sherry with seafood or a chilled white port with tonic on a hot evening for this stereotype to burst like a soap bubble. Fortified wines are one of the most underrated categories in the wine world – and it's high time to change that.
Verdejo from hot Rueda or salty albariño from rainy Galicia? Welcome to the ring, where we'll stage a duel between two of the most interesting Spanish grape varieties and see which one deserves the championship belt for summer refreshment.
Sparkling wines have been associated with celebration, joy and special moments for years. We open them at weddings, New Year's Eve, birthdays or promotions at work. It's a world full of diverse flavors that emphasize the uniqueness of the moment. You go to the store, stand in front of the shelf with sparkling wines, glance at the labels and there's prosecco, cava, champagne – and now what?
As new research suggests, specially trained dogs can play a key role in detecting pests and diseases that destroy crops.
