De nieuwste telg uit de stal van Graham’s: Graham’s Blend N12 Ruby Port. Ontzettend lekker om gekoeld te drinken maar speciaal ontwikkeld als Cocktail. Mix ‘m met mousserende wijn en maak af met wat rood fruit. Een schijfje sinaasappel voor het verfrissende element. Wedden dat Graham’s Blend N12 Ruby Port jouw favoriet wordt tijdens deze zomer?Port uit Portugal
De Port heeft zich inmiddels ontwikkeld tot erfgoed van de Portugese cultuur. Deze drank werd per toeval ontdekt. Het bijzondere hiervan was dat het de Engelsen waren die de Port groot hebben gemaakt. Portugese wijnen werden in de 17e eeuw per boot vervoerd naar Engeland. Door alcohol toe te voegen aan de wijn bleef de wijn niet alleen langer goed; het gistingsproces stopte! Hierdoor werden de suikers niet meer opgezet tot alcohol en kreeg je een zoete en zwoele drank. De Engelsen richtten de handelshuizen op, die later Port gingen produceren. Zo komt het dat nog steeds veel porthuizen, zoals Graham’s Port, Engelse namen hebben.Port van Graham’s
De geschiedenis van Graham’s gaat terug tot 1820. In tweehonderd jaar heeft de familie zich weten te onderscheiden met succesvolle portwijnen. Vooral hun vintage port viel goed in de smaak. Gerenommeerde wijnkenners zoals Robert Parker, Jancis Robinson en James Suckling hebben de wijnen van Graham’s continu bejubeld. Ook het innoverende en vernieuwende karakter van Graham’s is beroemd en bekend. Enkele jaren wisten zij al vriend en vijand te verbazen met een witte port, gemaakt om te mixen met tonic. Met Graham’s Blend N12 Ruby Port slaan zij weer een nieuwe weg in.Graham’s Blend N12 Ruby Port bestellen
Verfrissend, verkwikkend maar toch enorm elegant. Graham’s Blend N12 Ruby Port heeft alles in zich om het zomerdrankje van dit jaar te worden. Het is Eem Ruby stijl port waarbij de nadruk ligt op fruit. Met een fruitig pallet van rood fruit in de geur en smaak: denk aan bloesem, aardbeien, bessen en frambozen. Graham’s Blend N12 Ruby Port is een makkelijk glas port en ideaal voor diegene die een conventioneel glas port net iets te heftig vindt.Shipping Notes

A clear and concise book
Format: Hardcover
Fascinating book. Berntsen provides some interesting insights and recommendations on how we should fix problems at the CIA and in the national security apparatus. At a time when most critics want to destroy the Agency, Berntsen provides some plain spoken sanity. Human Intelligence, Counterterrorism and National Leadership needs to be read by anyone entering into defense, foreign affairs or intelligence - and anyone else with an interest in how the CIA works.
It is a fast and enjoyable read.

Skimming the Surface
Format: Hardcover
The essence of this book is to succinctly explain the role of CIA's National Clandestine Service (Directorate of Operations) in formulating and more importantly executing a coherent counter-terrorism strategy. Gary Berntsen is a retired CIA intelligence officer (clandestine service) with an impressive record of field assignments to his credit. He also clearly knows the ways of Washington D.C. in that this book is designed for those suffering from attention deficit disorder. While he raises several interesting point in the book, he also reveals an astonishing narrowness of view and tendency to reduce everything to its simplest terms.
In his introductory `background' chapter Berntsen makes the dubious claim that the collection of intelligence from human sources (HUMINT) is the "primary mission of CIA." Apparently he is unaware that CIA was originally founded to produce all source finished intelligence and that the National Intelligence Council (NIC), until recently under CIA, was the final word in the U.S. Intelligence System. Nothing reveals the sorry state of CIA's Directorate of Intelligence better than this claim. In the same manner Berntsen is apparently oblivious to the availability and uses of intelligence collected by technical means. To his credit he does recognize that the best intelligence is more often available from open (non-classified) sources than from secret sources. Yet he neither expands nor follows up this observation.
Berntsen more or less follows this pattern through out this book. For example he provides a brief discussion of the traditional Islamic Banking System called Hawalla, but is apparently unaware that the system is based on a recognized credit not cash and that money does not move across international borders. The system is widely trusted and is widely used by Muslim expatriates in the West and Saudi Arabia to send money home. For this reason Hawalla credit transfers providing money to terrorists are easily lost in a world wide mass of transactions. Yet it is possible to track Hawalla transactions and it has been done without "intensive manpower" allocations.
Berntsen deserves a good deal of respect and credit for his obvious service to the U. S. and his dedication to the cause of clandestine intelligence operations and its hand maiden covert operations. Yet this book is a terminally superficial and ill-considered work by someone who not only should know better, but could have produced a first rate `practical guide' to a counter-terrorism strategy.

What really sets this book apart from the rest of books on the subject is that it illustrates positive solutions to the problems. It is also a very entertaining and fun read. I would highly recommend this book to anyone concerned over current events and terrorism in our time.
