Rudesheim – one of Scenic’s ports of call
in the heart of the Rheingau region – is famous
for its Asbach brandy.
One unique way to try it is in a ‘Rudesheimer
Coffee’ – described as “the epitome of
sophisticated hospitality”.
This coffee consists of 3 cubes of sugar in an
original ‘Rudesheimer Coffee’ cup, with 40ml
of Asbach poured over it.
This is then set alight, stirred and allowed to
burn for 1 minute.
Hot coffee is then poured in, followed by
a generous scoop of cream that has been
sweetened with vanilla sugar on top.
You then “drink the hot delight through the
cool cream”.
You will definitely need to use Scenic’s
onboard gym after this!
