chattius 2,526 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Cathedral -> Wetzlarer Dom We lived some time as kids in mom's house which is just 7 houses away from the cathedral. Wetzlar was place of the Reichskammergericht the main court of the holy roman empire of german nation. It was made a free town not belonging to one of the many kingdoma because it had to be neutral. Same with religions, all shared the Dom and a common graveyard. So it never become a bishop seat even it was planed for one when the building started. After 800 years the second tower is still not finished and it is a test of students in architecture to name all the styles of the parts build in the 800 years- Link to comment

chattius 2,526 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Dom Perignon -> Champagnerbratbirne An old sort of pear (birne) which wasn't tasty but could be roasted (brat) and or used as a base for excellent sparkling fruit wine, sparkling or not. We have two old trees. The name was used way before champagner was a protected name. The trees are older than WW1 when France forced Germany to give up all Champagner connected names. So this pear sparkling wine has to be named C-Pear Sparkling wine at export. Did you know that modern champagne was created when the german wine master Anton Müller was hired by a french champagne maker to show them the Rütteln technique? It is called remuage in french and is used to remove particles from the champagne. And the C instead champagne 1 Link to comment

I think they are grown in Ontario Gewürztraminer -> ice wine gogo ice wine -> Schlehenfeuer Gewürztraminer is a certain species of grapes growing in colder climate, Ice wine however is any wine made from frozen grapes - at least here. The grapes are harvested at frost when the grapes contain less water and more sugar. Waiting for frost is a risky business at global warming. If it is not coming just for the right amount - the grapes are lost. Schlehenfeuer is a liqeur from cold harvested sloes. 1 Link to comment

chattius 2,526 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 honey ->Honigtauhonig/honeydew-honey The article is worth reading I have beehives. In a forest are few blossoms but many honeydew insects or sirup in tree wounds made by woodpeckers. So the honey has a way different taste. It is often sold as Waldhonig (forest honey) here. Mine would be classified as Eichenwaldhonig (oak forest honey). If I would sell itthat is. Most is given as birthday gifts or in exchange for selfmade products from others. As my twins (they are the ones who care for the bees mainly) say: why is collected sshhiitt so tasty. Curse auto censoring ;) 1 Link to comment

Yes Jet fuel -> Flugfeldlöschfahrzeug / airport crash tender When at naval flying wing we weren't allowed to remove our protection gear even a fire would be extinguised. The fuel which may be in air as a spray is very dangerous to health when inhaled. Got my driving license for trucks on a 6 wheel driven beast which could reach 100km/h from stand in 45 seconds with a water/chemical mix of 6 tons. 1 Link to comment
