Revival of sherry: Will sherry become just as popular as the Dutch genever or gin?

26-5-2016

Last Monday the Dutch sherry campaign was presented in ‘De Rotterdamse Markthal’. Importers, retailers, restaurant owners, sommeliers and trainers were all invited. Marketing agency Alterego developed an interactive platform sherry.wine/nl at which they share information and inspiration and give education. You will find many tips at the platform but also ‘create your own Shapa’, ‘create cocktails with sherry’ or ‘create a dish with sherry’. The purpose of this presentation was to let the Dutch people rediscover sherry, just like the Dutch people rediscovered gin and genever. A revival of sherry? I always loved a real dry sherry and realised that I haven’t been drinking it for years! ^Marjolein lees verder
