Ester Hauser

Vouette et Sorbée

Fidéle Brut Nature Champagne Blend

Wonderful mix of barrel raised character, tense palate, racing acid and that mineral imprint many Aube wines have. Also found a real balance in the wine’s fruity ester character and the hint of aldehyde, adding savory dimension. Mix of crisp green apple/pear with a touch of bruised fruit mixed in, underripe strawberry, green banana, saline, fino sherry, chalk. 11/2018 disgorgement R16 — 6 years ago

Glenfiddich

14 Years Bourbon Barrel Reserve Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Color of black tea. Nose is very bourbon like, with powerful spice, fermented grains, cedar wood, crayon, and ester. Taste of spicy cinnamon, oaky, definitely some caramel, but fruity notes are not too pronounced for me. Aftertaste does show some good apple flavors and zest. I will mistake it for a smooth and borderline spicy bourbon. — 7 years ago

Aberlour Distillery

16 Years Old Double Cask Matured Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Deep amber color showing her double cask feature. Nose of sweet apple cider, ester, a bit oak and cedar, smooth, and warm. Taste of nice peaty note, with spice coming next. Dried fruit like figs shows up deep on the rim and back of the tongue. Toffee and brown sugar like scarf wrap the tongue with softness. Aftertaste of dried fruit and baked apple. A 16 year old with smoothness and complexity of > 20 year old. — 8 years ago

Bel Lago Vineyard

Auxerrois Blanc 2013

Dry wine with pear notes and sweet ester flavors. The taste is bold and enduring on the pallet. This wine well complements salty or spicy poultry dishes. I first enjoyed this wine on my honeymoon, and it continues to impress. — 9 years ago

Boneyard Beer Company

Notorious Triple IPA

Light tropical fruit on the nose with some ketone/ester/alcohol the slightly tingles. Stupidly well balanced for a tipa, no alcohol burn and not syrupy. There is a moderate thickness to the mouth feel, slight carbonation and a good lacing on the glass. I get a little wave of tropical fruits and a nice warm finish. That's what she said. — 8 years ago

Russian River Brewing Company

Redemption Blonde Ale

Nose is pear, lemon peel, floral hops, and a touch of Belgian yeast clove and fennel. Quite pretty.

Quite a lot of hops on the palate which mostly come across as the noble, floral type. A bit of ester comes in mid way and finish is super dry with a touch of spice and mild bitterness. Great creamy mousse on the mouthfeel with a touch of astringency.

Very dry quaffer that would be great with mild cheese or salad. Hoppier and less yeasty than I remember, but that's the RR way.

Agharta Wines

Red Blend 2007

Color of dark inky red, with slightly mix of purple. Nose refined with saturated dried strawberries, oak, ester and crayon, a bit cocoa, a bit mineral, and the fragrance simply keep coming. I won’t imagine she is Syrah, I will guess high end Amarone instead. Taste follows similar notes with orders being per mutated. Oaks come first, dries fruit note, and indeed some raisins and berry note come second. Then some bold tannins, tobacco leaves and mineral. Very attractive. Aftertaste is dominated by mineral, good acidity, and some residual heat from peppery note. A wow. — 7 years ago

Woodford Reserve Distillery

Labrot & Graham Double Oaked Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Deep amber color shows her double oak nature. Nose of fragrant ester, green apple, oak, and hint of toffee. Very powerful nose. Taste is a dance of hot spice with creamy caramel, around this is some milky vanilla, apple, and chocolate note. Aftertaste is a pleasure with milk chocolate-like sweetness, a bit minty, dried figs, and powerful hot spice at the throats. This is a bold but well polished whiskey. — 8 years ago

Salina Rosso Nerello Blend

Great siciliano vino Carlo Hauser winery. The winery that made the wine that got me hooked 25 years ago. This wine is all about style, silky tannins, black berries, black licorice, volcanic minerals...and this wine was purchased in Florence. We drank a couple of bottles with Nicholas Ruth and Cristina Anel Ruth. — 9 years ago
