    I guess it depends on the individual’s music preference. I’ll drink it with just about every type of music except for the metals and the blues…

    Y’know, Starbucks has a whole bunch of music at their register to help you out with that question…

    So music can alter the way you perceive flavours, nyeh maybe but the guy playing monastic chants to his wines as they mature? Does he reckon the music somehow imparts character on the wine? Madness surely.

    I actually heard about some similar research a few months back on NPR http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=16372623). I’d like to read the research more, but couldn’t this have some pretty big implications for barista competitions?

    I also agree with ‘The Album Leaf’ – we listen to them during the week, they rock!
