Maryland Wine 
Information

Choco Vine from Holland    ChocoVine is a fine French Cabernet subtly combined  with a rich dark chocolate from Holland, paired together to create a decadent, silky smooth drink. It can be served on the rocks or as the main ingredient to an array of sinful cocktails. ChocoVine is blended in Holland by Team Products, a division of Dekuyper, one of the oldest and most respected cream manufacturers in the world. Chocolate and wine can be paired in a way that features the best and the most interesting aspect of each flavor profile. But they are also both incredibly complex and pairing them has always been a daunting process, often leading to dreadful results. The right chocolate paired with the perfect wine can create a near-orgasmic taste experience.

Le Tourment Vert

Unlike most absinthes, Le Tourment Vert, sometime referred to as “The Green Torment”, is bright green in color and is bottled at 100 proof.

Absente has a pronounced bitterness and the traditional way of drinking it is with water and sugar. The taste is a fine balance of anis (licorice) flavor with a blend of herbs including fennel, sage and coriander. Le Tourment can actually be consumed but refined to your taste with water and sugar. Here are some comments from consumers:

“Unlike many absinthes, Le Tourment is quite sweet, so much so that it cuts the licorice aroma when you first take a sip. The licorice returns on the finish, dissolving into herbal notes (which must be the Saveurs d’Herbes mentioned on the label).

“If you’re into absinthe, at least a little, you owe it to yourself to track down and snatch up a bottle of the stuff. It’s significantly different than anything else on the market; while it’s very controversial, it’s an interesting counterpoint to the more traditional absinthe bottling out there.”
