Carbonic Macerated Coffee

The crossover was inevitable — wine inspired coffee. Respecting today’s release of Beaujolais Nouveau in the Vallée de la Saône we reflect upon “enlightened” coffee varieties and preparations that classically “pair” with wine — either as contrast or complement. Anaerobic or carbonic-maceration coffees (very “winey” ferments). Many modern specialty lots taste like red fruit jam, Concord grape, or even Lambrusco. As with the wine itself: not for coffee snobs.

BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU

Beaujolais Nouveau is a young, light, fruity red wine made from Gamay grapes in the Beaujolais region of France (just south of Burgundy). Unlike most red wines that are aged for months or years, Beaujolais Nouveau is rushed from the vineyard to the bottle in just 6–8 weeks using a special fermentation technique called carbonic maceration (which gives it its signature banana/strawberry/candy-like flavors).

By French law, it cannot be released before one minute past midnight on the third Thursday of November. This has turned the release into a global marketing event that started in the 1970s–80s:

At midnight, the phrase “Le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrivé !” (“The Beaujolais Nouveau has arrived!”) is shouted in bars, restaurants, and wine shops.
There used to be literal races (by car, helicopter, hot-air balloon, etc.) to get the first bottles to Paris and later to cities around the world (Tokyo, New York, London…).
It’s marketed as a fun, unpretentious “party wine” meant to be drunk young and slightly chilled.

Reputation today

Serious wine lovers often look down on it (it’s simple and can taste artificial to some).
But millions of people still love it as the unofficial kickoff to the holiday/winter drinking season — a light, festive, easy-drinking red that says “the new vintage is here!”

Beaujolais Nouveau Day celebrates the year’s freshest, fruitiest red wine released with maximum fanfare and zero pretension.

How French Intellectuals Ruined the West

“Helen Pluckrose outlines some of the arguments later explored in depth in her bestselling 2020 book, Cynical Theories (co-authored with James Lindsay). The essay charts the pernicious influence of postmodernist thinking on two generations of academics and activists. If you want to understand how we got to a place where microaggressions are denounced as violence but the brutal terrorism of an intifada is considered righteous, this is an important primer.”

Law on the State of Emergency

“A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt

University of Melbourne Estate Plan

The criteria and process for declaring a state of emergency can vary depending on the country and its legal framework. However, governments generally consider certain factors and criteria when making such declarations. Here are some common elements that governments use to determine whether to declare a state of emergency:

Imminent Threat: Governments typically declare a state of emergency when there is an imminent threat to public safety or the normal functioning of society. This could include natural disasters (such as hurricanes, earthquakes, or floods), severe public health emergencies (like pandemics), acts of terrorism, civil unrest, or other situations that pose a significant risk.
Scale and Severity: The scale and severity of the situation play a crucial role in declaring a state of emergency. Governments assess whether the event or circumstances are beyond the capacity of regular governmental and emergency response systems to effectively manage and mitigate the impact.
Public Safety and Welfare: Governments consider the potential impact on public safety, welfare, and infrastructure. If the situation poses a substantial risk to lives, property, critical infrastructure, or essential services, it may warrant a declaration of a state of emergency.
Legal Framework: Countries typically have legal frameworks in place that outline the conditions and procedures for declaring a state of emergency. Governments assess whether the situation meets the legal requirements and conditions specified in these frameworks.
Proportionality: The principle of proportionality is often considered, ensuring that the measures taken during the state of emergency are proportional to the threat or situation at hand. Governments aim to strike a balance between protecting public safety and minimizing unnecessary disruption to individual rights and liberties.
Expert Advice and Recommendations: Governments rely on expert advice and recommendations from relevant authorities, such as emergency management agencies, health organizations, and security agencies, to assess the situation and determine the need for a state of emergency.

It’s important to note that the specific criteria and procedures for declaring a state of emergency can vary significantly between countries. The legal provisions and powers granted to the government during a state of emergency also vary, including the duration, scope of authority, and measures that can be implemented. It’s advisable to consult the specific laws and regulations of the country in question to understand the precise criteria and process involved in declaring a state of emergency.
