Dux Series 3 – Contemporary Standard

 

I am pleased to announce that Dux Series 3 will begin on November 20th.  There has been a long delay between the previous one due to some recent travel, an overabundance in interruptions in testing and creating items. 

With Dux Series 3, the governing concept was actually derived from a idea from Series 2.  The two are and were always meant to be both a contrast and complement in terms of their flavor profiles and ideology.  While Series 2 was focused on an exploration with familiarity of flavors, Series 3 is the focused on interpreting a set of flavor profiles that are representative of unfamiliar standards. 

Series 3 is meant to present a very modern and technical approach to the ingredients, but at the same time, it should evoke a very traditional response.
