I met Terence and his wife Charmaine. Lovely couple... I found that Terence has a passion for cooking and have an acute taste bud. I guess, when you are into food, start being aware of the difference in taste and be aware of what you eat and really savor each taste Over time, you develop the sense of each smell and taste in food and beverage. When you are cooking, these skills are vital !
Here is Terence's recipes
A tablespoon of honey dissolved in a minimum of hot water, squeeze in juice of lemon (bottled variety also can), then add brandy - one tablespoon to a shot. On first day of symptoms have a hot bath/shower, then just before bed make this and inhale the hot vapours to clear nose and when still warm drink at one go to clear throat and get a good nites sleep.
Have also attached pics of my favourite X.O.'s
1. Hennessy Grande Champagne X.O - Special 1998 blend to mark 50th anniversary of the famous X.O Bottle
The Hennessy.com site no longer has this, but you can see their other range; their Paradis is good too.
2. Martell X.O. Supreme - this is the old style bottle; they recently came up with a new bottle/packaging
You can see it on the Martell.com site; their Cordon Bleu is good value for drinking/cooking.
Remy Martin is another good brand. They have a special site www.louis-xiii.com for their super high end product.
