Scotch Malt Whisky Society “DREAMING OF CANTALOUPE ISLAND” – Scotch Whisky News
DREAMING OF CANTALOUPE ISLAND
As warm evenings turn to sultry nights and jazz chords escape from basement clubs, our mouths water for the sensory journey of great whisky. Will 39.107 Coconut Oil and Candy Floss evoke summers past or could Herbie Hancock’s piano make you dream of Cantaloupe Island? Richard Havers (Universal Music/The Jazz Labels) has put together a compelling playlist, exploring the relationship by matching jazz tracks to drams. Enjoy a selection of our whisky and jazz matches at our Members’ Rooms or listen at home HERE >
