Updated draft of the placemats.
  • +1943, +1948, +1982, +1997, +2000.
  • Two pre-pour sheets for each vintage, one to go underneath a filling decanter, one to go under glasses.
  • Some vintages have small initials of those born then. Extras?
  • One session, or two? Or two sessions, but poured as one session?

Updated draft of the placemats.
  • +1947, taking it to 25 ports, so five sheets of 5, rather than four of 6.
  • I decided that the Cochin-Bold ‘4’ was terrible, so this typeface has been replaced by Didot-Bold.
  • In header, +‟www.Sandeman.eu”.
  • Axel P wrote:I have to discuss this with Georg.
    Is George Sandeman to be our mystery industry guest? And if so, which is his vintage and what are his initials?
  • Data log on last page of PDF.
  • +S.
  • Two pre-pour sheets for each vintage, one to go underneath a filling decanter, one to go under glasses.
  • Some vintages have small initials of those born then. Extras?
  • One session, or two? Or two sessions, but poured as one session?

What does RAW at 1935 standing for? I presume King George has other initials?

Deleted 2000, since it is not very nice to drink right now. Tried the Vau 2000, which is excellent, but the S00 is fully closed at the moment

The 1935 was probably bottled in 1937, the year of the Coronation of George VI.
