The range has developed considerably and I now feel we have a core of great champagnes to Nick offer something for everyone. Managing Director [email protected] Our business model is to keep our overheads at an absolute min- 07973 654097 imum, so we can bring you great value, especially if you take ad- vantage of tiered pricing. We are also trying to encourage people to Carol try new champagnes, so don’t forget you can mix up the bottles in PR and Marketing Manager a case and if we can help you choose we are just a phone call away. [email protected] 07866 693453 In the last 20 years we have had a couple of vintages in Champagne that are widely acclaimed as outstanding, these being 1996 and Chris 2002, which is why we have sourced as much as we can of these Office Manager now rare finds. The 1996s are increasingly scarce and so are some [email protected] of the 2002’s so we encourage you to cellar some of these before 07957 027337 they are gone or before I drink them!

  • 2009 Vol 66-1-Spring
    LOYAL LEGION HISTORICAL JOURNAL The Publication of The Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States VOL. 66, No. 1 SPRING 2009 in the shadows of the columned memorial, the huge sculpture of Abraham Lincoln sat, like a father watching his children. And it seemed on the 200th anniversary of Lincoln’s birth, a bright and blustery day that was filled with tributes, that the voices and faces of the children were as fi tting a present as any. Across the District yesterday, honors flowed for the nation’s most revered president -- the lanky prairie lawyer and politician who came to Washington from Illinois to preserve the Union, wage the Civil War and help end slavery. From the morning ceremonies at the Lincoln Memorial, where last month the country’s fi rst black chief executive sat as president-elect, to Ford’s Theatre, where Lincoln was assassinated for his war against slavery, the 16th president was hailed as the creator of modern America. In the Capitol Rotunda, where Lincoln’s body lay in state after his death in 1865, President Obama stood with leaders of Congress and praised “this singular figure who in so many ways made my own story possible -- and who in so many ways made America’s story possible.” “For, what Lincoln never forgot, not even in the midst of civil war, was that despite all that divided us -- North and South, black and white -- we were, at heart, one Lauding Lincoln and a Legacy nation and one people,” the president said. As Crowds Gathered to Honor The 16th President, They Spoke Of a Man “Even as we meet here today .

  • DND Drinks Menu
    Speakeasy — a bar that served alcohol during the Prohibition Era of the United States (1920 – 1933). They were so called from the practice of speaking quietly about such a place in public, or when inside it, so as not to alert the police and neighbours. BARREL-AGED COCKTAILS The practice of holding spirits in casks has been going on for centuries. It has evolved from necessity of storage into practically a science. But there is still an element of something magical going on and a certain amount of faith is required. It is not called the “angel’s share” for nothing. VINTAGE SAZERAC According to the legend, the world’s first cocktail was reportedly invented in the mid-1800s at the Sazerac Coffee House in New Orleans by apothecary owner Antoine Peychaud. In 1873, the recipe was altered to replace the French brandy with American Rye whiskey and a dash of Absinthe. Frapin 1988 Grande Champagne Cognac, Grand Marnier Cordon Rouge 1970, Spray of Jade Nouvelle Orleans Absinthe Verte & a Lemon Twist. Aged in a Sauternes seasoned barrel. £25 MANHATTAN A popular history suggest that the drink originated form the Manhattan Club in New York City in the early 1870s where it was invented by Dr Iain Marshall for a banquet hosted by Jennie Jerome (Lady Randolph Churchill, mother of Winston) in honour of presidential candidate Samuel J. Tilden. Rittenhouse 100 Proof Rye, Cocchi Di Torino, Angostura Bitter. Aged in a Bordeaux “Larose Perganson” red wine seasoned barrel. £15 BIJOU The cocktail was invented by Harry Johnson “The Father of Professional Bartending” who called it Bijou because it combined the colors of three jewels: gin for diamond, vermouth for ruby and chartreuse for emerald.

  • Charles Camille HEIDSIECK Né Le 16 Mai 1822 À 11H Du Matin À Reims 51 Marne Selon Acte N°475 – AD51 En Ligne – 2 E 534 /229 Nais
    Il fait découvrir le champagne aux Américains et sa maison devenue prestigieuse pétille tant aux Etats- Unis, qu’on l’y surnomme « Champagne Charlie », en ce milieu du 19e siècle. Charles Camille HEIDSIECK Né le 16 mai 1822 à 11h du matin à Reims 51 Marne Selon acte n°475 – AD51 en ligne – 2 E 534 /229 nais. 1822 – vue 129/344 Le champagne, une passion héréditaire chez Heidsieck. Quand Charles Heidsieck part, champagne en main, conquérir l’Amérique en 1852, il se fait le digne héritier de son aïeul Florens-Louis Heidsieck, connu pour avoir devancé à cheval les troupes de Napoléon 1er en Russie en 1811, avec en main, caisses de champagne et carnet de commande, afin de célébrer une éventuelle victoire. Tout a donc commencé avec cet intrépide oncle Florens, fils d’un pasteur protestant de Westphalie, venu faire le drapier à Reims. Là, il tombe amoureux d’une Champenoise… et en même temps du vin de Champagne. Charles se présente donc comme le digne successeur des ancêtres Heidsieck qui s’occupent dès le 18e siècle de vinifier le champagne. Il a 29 ans quand il fonde sa maison de champagne, en 1851. Le Nouveau Monde : un immense marché à conquérir ! L’année suivante, il se rend aux Etats-Unis où il fera de longs séjours entre 1852 et 1860. Dès son premier voyage, il mesure l’immense potentiel du marché américain. Dès lors, il n’a de cesse de faire parler de lui et de se faire une place en vue dans la haute société américaine du 19e siècle qu’il subjugue par son aisance, son élégance et son éducation aristocratique.

    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Champagne Charlie In June of 2011, it was announced that French drinks group Rémy Cointreau completed the sale of the Charles Heidsieck and Piper- Heidsieck Champagne brands to Société Européenne de Participations Industrielles (EPI). The Henriot Group had previously sold the Heidsieck brands to Rémy Cointreau in 1985. French fashion-led luxury goods company EPI had already lined up Cécile Bonnefond (former managing director of Veuve Clicquot) to run the Champagne end of the business. The previous year, Charles Heidsieck and Piper- Heidsieck won more than 20 medals in the 2010 Decanter World Wine Awards, including five regional trophies. Champagne Heidsieck & Co. was founded in 1785 in Reims just a few years before the French Revolution by Florenz-Louis Heidsieck and was later split into three different entities: Piper-Heidsieck, Charles Heidsieck and Heidsieck Monopole. As a group, they are some of the world's most renowned (and most awarded) Champagne brands. Based in the Reims region of Champagne, Charles Heidsieck produces both vintage and non-vintage cuvée. The term cuvée is used with several different meanings, more or less based on the concept of a tank or vat of wine put to some purpose. In Champagne, the cuvée also refers to use of the first and best grape juice from gentle pressing of the grapes (as opposed to the taille, or tail). Charles Heidsieck owns 30 hectares (74 acres) of vineyards in Ambonnay, Bouzy and Oger (communes in the Marne department in northeastern France) and produces approximately three million bottles annually.
