The influential UK trade
magazine Drinks Business has published an excellent article on Sherry. It is keen on “Top Tens”, but this
one is really interesting and all Sherry fans should show it to friends and
relations who are doubtful about our favourite wine. Here is a link: https://www.thedrinksbusiness.com/2016/05/top-10-myths-about-sherry/
The house where the
famous Flamenco Singer Camarón de la Isla was born has now opened as a museum. Born in 1950 he grew
up in this family home at Calle Carmen, 29 in San Fernando, Cádiz, dreaming of
being a bullfighter, but it was his voice which brought him fame. His
recordings with guitarist Paco de Lucía are legendary, but he died in 1992 aged
only 41, and there followed one of the biggest funerals in Spanish history. A
pilot opening of his house during Semana Santa saw well over 1,300 visitors. Listen to him with a glass of Sherry and you will find yourself in Andalucia.
