<p>All these dry-days in Mumbai have made us thirsty and irritable. So, to up the spirits – yours and our own – we’re announcing the <strong>#GigglewaterContest</strong>. A chance to <strong>win free Miller High Life</strong> beer!</p>
<p>Read on for the full scoop.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>The Prize:</strong></span><strong>&nbsp;</strong>Lots of love and luck.</p>
<p>Oh, and an entire crate of Miller High Life beer too. Yep, that’s <strong>24 FREE pints</strong> just waiting for you.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>The Formula:</strong></span> We’re talking beer here, so of course the contest has to be simple.</p>
<p>‘BEER LOVE’ PHOTO + ONE LINE = FREE BEER</p>
<p>Think ‘<strong>BEER LOVE</strong>’ – that’s the theme. All you have to do is send in a&nbsp;picture you’ve taken along with a single line that conveys your interpretation of ‘BEER LOVE’- literal, whacky, artistic, delusional… it’s all allowed, minus any nudity and lewdness.</p>
<p>The best combination of caption and picture (and an idea as a whole) is what will decide the winner.</p>
<p>Send entries via…</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Facebook:</span>&nbsp;1. Like the GiggleWater411 Facebook page <strong><a href="https://www.facebook.com/gigglewater" target="_blank">here</a>&nbsp; </strong></p>
<p><strong></strong>2. Upload your ‘BEER LOVE’ pictures with a one-line caption to the GiggleWater411 Facebook page (P.S – Images will appear on the wall only once they’ve been approved)</p>
<p>OR</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Twitter:</span>&nbsp;1. Follow @giggle_water <strong><a href="https://twitter.com/#!/Giggle_water" target="_blank">here</a></strong></p>
<p>2. Twitpic with the hashtag #GigglewaterContest</p>
<p><strong>*****Last date for submissions is July 14, 2012*****</strong></p>
<p>All acceptable entries will be put up on the Facebook page, so stay tuned.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>The Commandments:</strong></span></p>
<ol>
<li>All photo submissions must feature BEER.&nbsp;If you’re image shows a brand, then it must be Miller High Life. Although entries showing just beer (in a mug, for example) without a brand will be accepted too.</li>
<li>All submissions should be original.</li>
<li>Standard bar rules apply — Participants MUST be over 21 years.</li>
<li>No restrictions on number of entries. Send in as many pictures as you’d like.</li>
<li>Like the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/gigglewater" target="_blank">Facebook page</a> and follow the blog on Twitter at <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/Giggle_water" target="_blank">@giggle_water</a></li>
<li>We’re still working out the kinks of delivering alcohol to other states, so the winner will need to pick up the crate from Andheri West, Mumbai. Otherwise, we’ll just have to drink it all ourselves. Le sigh.</li>
</ol>

				<p>June 29, 2012. In India and in most other parts of the world today is just another Friday that began when you rolled over in your bed, cursed the alarm and hoped you could skip ahead to the weekend. Let me tell you what you should have been hoping for instead. To be in Haro. ‘What that’, you ask?</p>
<p>Haro is the capital of La Rioja, one of Spain’s largest wine-producing regions. Here, June 29 is the celebration of the patron saint San Pedro. As all holy days must, it begins with a solemn mass on the mount of Bilibio, with thousands of believers dressed in pristine white. Then the mass ends and the madness begins. Or as Haro calls it, <em>La Batalla del Vino</em> (The Battle of Wines).</p>

<p>Armed with jugs, buckets, wineskins, crop sprayers, boots or almost anything that will hold wine, the objective is to squirt red wine at everyone around. So people douse, defend, dance and when they’re tired, drink. In Haro, the more red there is running down the street, the better. Over 50,000 gallons of Rioja wines transform the sea of white to translucent and then purple as it dries. And you thought wet T-shirt competitions were fun. Juvenile!</p>
<p>So today if you’re wondering what you’re missing, this is it. And if that isn’t bad enough, think of all that Spanish wine that’s going to waste as you sit toiling away at your desk. Makes you want to cry, doesn’t it?</p>

<p><em>Today, June 21 is International #SauvBlanc Day 2012.</em></p>
<p><em>I asked Kailash Gurnani, winemaker at <a title="A look at York Live&nbsp;2012" href="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/york-live-2-0-2/" target="_blank">York Winery</a> in Nasik, to give us a little education in this green skinned grape variety. Kailash has spent four and a half years studying winemaking in Australia and completed his Bachelor of Oenology degree from the University of Adelaide. Prior to joining the family winery business, he worked at Hardys Tintara and Domaine Chandon in Australia and then 3 months in Cyprus. This 23-year-old is possibly India’s youngest qualified winemaker and goes by @desiwinemaker on twitter.</em></p>

<p><strong>The Sauvignon Blanc:</strong></p>
<p>The recent success of Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand has brought this French wine grape variety back in fashion. This is one of those varieties that requires a minimalistic winemaking approach. It is also a very delicate grape variety and wine to handle in the winery. However, the right approach and care at the right time can give great results. Some producers around the world ferment this wine in oak barrels while the majority stick to fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The barrel ferment technique method of making Sauvignon Blanc has for some reason not yet found its way to India. Perhaps because this is not yet a very popular wine in India.</p>
<p>Sauvignon Blancs (SBL) mostly have green herbaceous (this is a characteristic flavour of SBL) or sweet tropical flavours. Very few winemakers aim for the excessively herbaceous style with some of the best SBLs from the world being more tropical, fresh and elegant.</p>
<p><strong>SBL in India:</strong></p>
<p>SBL hasn’t gained a strong following in India yet. (It is a slow moving wine). Most of the wines the county has had in the past were more on the green/herbaceous side. This was partly due to poor vineyard management, high yields, excess crop load and early harvesting. However with time and better knowledge of Indian viticulture &amp; climate, we’ve been able to make wines with better balance and more ripe tropical flavours.</p>
<p>It is typical for some SBL wines in India to have high alcohol content. The quest to achieve ripe tropical flavours in the vineyard sometimes results in higher alcohol wines. (Also, because of the onset of summer, the ripening of the grapes gets accelerated towards the end. So too ripe = too much sugar = high alcohol in wine.)</p>
<p><strong>SauvBlanc 2012 at York:</strong><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>This year at York, I have tried to stay away from aggressive herbaceous flavours as it can make the wine repulsive. Keeping in mind the potential alcohol content in the final wine, the grapes were allowed to stay in the vineyard a little longer with some sun exposure in the canopy. This helped me achieve floral and tropical flavours on the nose with subtle herbaceous characters coming through on the palate.</p>

<p>If you’ve read my <a title="New in the Market: Budweiser&nbsp;Magnum" href="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/new-in-the-market-budweiser-magnum/" target="_blank">previous post</a> then you know that Anheuser-Busch InBev launched Budweiser Magnum in Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Hyderabad yesterday. It is available in <strong>Mumbai at Rs. 150 for 650ml</strong> and <strong>Rs. 80 for a pint of 330ml</strong>.</p>
<p>After trying and failing to acquire a bottle at three local liquor stores (in Andheri West – Mumbai), I finally managed to get my hands on one. Here’s what I thought of it:</p>

<p>I should admit at the onset that I’m not the biggest lover of&nbsp; Indian strong beers; I find most of them undrinkable. Having said that Budweiser Magnum is surprisingly <strong>smooth, crisp</strong> and easy to drink.</p>
<ul>
<li>Appearance is clear and a <strong>golden yellow</strong></li>
<li><strong>Thick white head</strong>, good retention and <strong>good lacing</strong></li>
<li>Medium carbonation</li>
<li>Rice adjuncts and well-balanced hops cuts the bitterness that I find in most Indian strong beers.</li>
<li><strong>ABV</strong> – below 8% is what it says behind the bottle. Kapil Agarwal, CEO AB InBev India was <a href="http://www.indiainfoline.com/Markets/News/Budweiser-MAGNUM-launches-exclusively-in-India/5435290861" target="_blank">quoted</a> saying, “Inspired by, and created for trendsetters and ambitious aspirers, MAGNUM is a super premium brew at 6.5% ABV.”</li>
</ul>
<p>And though this might not be very relevant to most, my final test when it comes to beer is this – will I get through more than three sips, if the beer isn’t chilled? &nbsp;Magnum manages to pass.</p>
<p>So next time I pick a beer to drink, will Magnum be it? Probably not, but amongst the Indian strong beers (above 5% ABV) I’ve tasted so far, I would most likely choose Budweiser Magnum despite it being more expensive (Carlsberg’s Elephant is Rs. 135 for 650ml).</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>

<p>Today Anheuser-Busch InBev introduced the new Budweiser Magnum in the Indian market.</p>
<p>Retail stores in Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi and Bangalore will now stock the strong <strong>American style lager</strong> with <strong>ABV &lt;</strong>&nbsp;<strong>8%</strong>. In Mumbai it will be available at <strong>Rs. 150 for a 650ml</strong> bottle, making it the highest-priced Indian strong beer in the market.</p>
<p>I haven’t managed to get my hands on it yet. The three closest local wine shops to my house (Andheri West/Juhu area) are still awaiting their crates. Has anyone tried it yet? Leave a comment if you have and tell me what you thought. Cheers!</p>

				<p>In my last post I told you about the <a title="Talking Tequila at&nbsp;#BombayCocktailClub" href="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/2012/05/04/talking-tequila-at-bombaycocktailclub/" target="_blank">#BombayCocktailClub</a>. This week it was the turn of another club of sorts, where aficionados gather to celebrate Single Malt and Cigars. With Chef Clinton Cooper, Executive Chef of the Four Seasons Hotel at the helm, these get-togethers are for those who enjoy cigar-smoking coupled with the tasting of great malts.</p>

<p>After his initial few months in Mumbai some 18 months ago, Clinton was invited to a meeting of one of the more official Single Malt and Cigar clubs in the city. There he found a group of elite businessmen exchanging visiting cards and talking work while a handful drew on their cigars. If he wanted to enjoy his cigars and malts, he would have to organise his own get-togethers, he decided. And there would be guidelines. I haven’t actually seen a rule book, but here’s what I’ve gathered so far.</p>
<p>Rule 1 – No exchange of visiting cards.</p>
<p>Rule 2 – If you don’t or won’t smoke a cigar, don’t come.</p>
<p>Rule 3 – If you expect a group of stuffy suit-clad middle-aged men, you might as well stay home. Here, don’t feel shy to show up in shorts and if you have a problem with tacos, cheese and pizza… too bad!</p>
<p>Clinton makes one concession though. If you aren’t a regular smoker but are willing to learn, experience and develop an appreciation for cigars, he is more than happy to educate you with interesting tid-bids on the Dos and Don’ts.</p>
<p>This is where I fit in. I might never be a cigar connoisseur, and even less than an occasional smoker, but just like with alcohol, I’ve found that there’s an extremely interesting background to cigars – how they are made, where they come from and how they are meant to be appreciated. The process is almost ritualistic, and for the devout these nights are like Sunday service.</p>
<p>Here’s how the Single Malt and Cigar&nbsp;nights&nbsp;works – every month a date is blocked and an invite is sent out for everyone to meet at Clinton’s or any other member’s home. Each person who makes an appearance must bring along a bottle of single malt and/or some cigars. Typically a night sees quite a range of malts and cigars.&nbsp;Clinton is by far the leader of the pack when it comes to a cigar collection and takes great pride in his well stocked humidor. &nbsp;His ‘babies’ – the Montecristo As which&nbsp;cost $86 dollars each come out only on deserving occasions.</p>

<p>But maybe I should back up a little for the sake of the uninitiated. So, what is a humidor? It is a box which is used to store cigars.&nbsp; This little wood and glass contraption maintains a constant humidity and keeps the cigars from spoiling.</p>
<div data-shortcode="caption" id="attachment_1201" style="width: 650px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1201" data-attachment-id="1201" data-permalink="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/2012/05/17/single-malt-and-cigar-evenings/img_0006/" data-orig-file="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg" data-orig-size="734,1024" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 500D&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1336508555&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.125&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}" data-image-title="IMG_0006" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg?w=215" data-large-file="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg?w=640" tabindex="0" role="button" loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-1201" title="IMG_0006" src="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg?w=640&amp;h=892" alt="" width="640" height="892" srcset="https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg?w=640&amp;h=892 640w, https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg?w=108&amp;h=150 108w, https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg?w=215&amp;h=300 215w, https://gigglewater411.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/img_0006.jpg 734w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"></a><p id="caption-attachment-1201" class="wp-caption-text">Clinton Cooper’s humidor</p></div>
<p>Now for some of the most interesting things I’ve learnt about&nbsp;puffing away at&nbsp;a cigar:</p>
<p>– Every cigar is made of three parts (leaves) – the filler, the binder and the wrapper. Fillers constitute the tobacco at the centre of the cigar while binders are the intermediate leaves that hold the filler tobacco together. Wrappers are very important to taste and are usually very high quality leaves.</p>
<p>– Begin by cutting off the tip of the cigar either with a special cutter or make a hole with a cigar punch.</p>

<p>– It is important that your cigar is lit evenly. Here’s the best way to do it – first hold it horizontally and ‘toast’ the edges of the wrapper in a circular motion. Then put it to your mouth, light the tobacco at the centre and draw on the cigar as you rotate it.</p>

<p>-For all the cigarette smokers out there. DO NOT inhale cigar smoke. Take a drag, roll the smoke in your mouth, enjoy its flavour and exhale.</p>
<p>– The length of the ash is a mark of the quality of the cigar. So do not ash a cigar, just let it burn naturally. The ash also controls the burning of the cigar.</p>
<p>– When you’re done with your cigar, leave it to burn out in an ashtray. It isn’t necessary to stub it like you would a cigarette. In fact, snuffing out a cigar releases a bad odour.</p>

				<p>Earlier this week I made my way to round two of the #BombayCocktailClub. Started by Tim Etherington -Judge, Brand Ambassador of Diageo Reserve Brands, #BCC brings together people who love their alcohol and enjoy learning about it as well. Tim <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/gingerbitters" target="_blank">(@gingerbitters)</a> is the mixologist behind some of the best cocktail menus in Mumbai, including the current city favourite – The Table. For him the purpose of #BCC is simple, to share good alcohol with people who savour it, and to spread the love of fine cocktails.</p>
<p>So, the usual suspects gathered again. And this time around it was all about the agave. The Mexican themed night saw a line up of different tequilas and even some much-appreciated mezcals – Don Julio Blanco and Añejo, Jose Cuervo Plantino, Sauza blanco, Del Maguey ‘single village’ mezcal and Ilegal mezcals – Joven, Reposado and Añejo.</p>
<p>As we smelt, sipped and exchanged all we knew about this Mexican favourite – the night went from the gimmicky mezcal worm banter to our collective disdain of the sacrilegious salt-and-lime tequila shots and finally, to many rounds of margaritas. &nbsp;From what Tim tells us, there’s another #BCC night planned soon; we can’t wait!</p>

<p><strong>Tequila or Mezcal?</strong></p>
<p>Tequila and Mezcal are both made from the juice of the agave plant but there are certain things that differentiate one from another.</p>
<p>Like with Champagne or Cognac, to qualify as tequila it must be produced in specific areas of the Mexican states Jalisco, Gunajuato, Nayarit, Tamalipas and Michocan. The distilled agave liquor made in other parts of Mexico is mezcal. So all tequila is mezcal, but not all mezcal is tequila. Getit?</p>
<p>There are over 200 varieties of agave, but tequila can only be produced from one – the Blue Agave Tequilana Weber.&nbsp; The agave plant takes between 5-10 years to be ready for harvest and the heart or ‘piña’ is the only part used in production.</p>

<p><strong>The Agave Lore</strong></p>
<p>The agave story is entwined with ancient Aztec folklore. Legend has it that there once was an evil goddess Tzintzimitl who had a beautiful granddaughter Mayahuel – the goddess of fertility and the one with 400 breasts! Mayahuel ran away to marry Quetzalcoatl, the god of redemption. To escape Tzintzimitl’s (T’s) wrath, the lovers transformed themselves into two branches of a leafy tree so that they could sway with the wind and caress each other. Poetic yes, but what is a good ole myth without any vengeance or misery?</p>
<p>The evil grandmother eventually discovered their whereabouts and ripped Mayahuel’s branch from the tree, crushing it into tiny pieces. The devastated Quetzalcoatl vanquished Tzintzimitl and buried his love’s remnants into the sand where he watered them with his tears. It is either this or the lighting that struck Mayahuel’s resting place (according to different versions) that gave birth to the first Agave plant with sap that seemed to have ‘interesting’ qualities (read: the ability to get you high). Since then the nectar of the Agave became the ceremonial offering to the Gods and Mayahuel also came to be known as the Goddess of Agave. It wasn’t until the arrival of the Spanish in the 16<sup>th</sup>&nbsp;century that the agave juice was distilled to create mezcal.</p>
