Happy New Year ...

For more than 75 million euros was blown into the air last night ... Crisis? Where are we talking about?

Between the well tolerated sound of beautiful decorative fireworks, we were - more than last year - startled by violent thunderclaps, as if bombs fell on the district.

Happily comes the day after a restless night before. And then you can make it as if you're unpacking a small bag of mere 'goodies'. Soft light, a fantastic book, a crystal glass, a pair of ice cubes and a real Scotch bottle ... you sit down in your chair, you light the lamp, you slide the cap of the bottle ...

It has a fresh and fruity nose with a touch of pear ... it has a distinctive, well balnced taste with rich fruit flavors, subtle pine and ... a hint of peatiness ...

You find yourself back completely while you hear the sound of the Glenfiddich Special Reserve ... aged 12 years ... when you pours it into your glass on the first day of the new year ...

CHEERS all my blip friends ... health and prosperity to you in the year of 2013!
