珍惜當下 The Time is Now 昨天晚餐時，和家人邊吃邊聊，說起我的閨蜜因為 疫情從多倫多回到滿地可的老家遠程工作，與家人團聚 令她感受到親情的重要，於是決定辭去多倫多的工作， 留在家人身邊。想起和閨蜜同哭同笑的日子不再，「珍惜 當下」四個字縈繞心頭。 這 四 個 字其實涵蓋了我們生活的方方面面，本期 eliteGen裡有新潮安瓶護膚推介，有多倫多新開的幾家 餐館，還有Pholc的精美燈飾 The Dalmore昂貴的威 士忌珍藏 ASUS神級電競手機 卑詩省的各種精釀啤 酒……。逛街購物，美容保養，品嘗美食，玩物珍藏， 探索自然……，我要帶領讀者們去領略當下的美好，和 讀者們一起，不論在怎樣的境遇之下，以自己的方式發 現生活的積極意義，享受「那一刻」的愉悅和滿足。 「珍惜當下」的另一層意義還在於積極進取，就拿 eliteGen今期的封面女孩孫仙易來說，從故鄉來到多倫 多打拼，所有的計劃都被新冠疫情擾亂，但她把困難 當作磨礪自己的機會，一步一步穩扎穩打。路易威登正 是看重她的這份努力，傾其「家珍」要令她光芒四射。還 有今期Rolex和Panerai腕錶故事中的主角—海洋攝影師 Sylvia Earle率領的極限探險者，及美國華裔登山家金國 威，這些傳奇英雄以征服大自然為樂，同時竭盡全力保 護大自然。正是「珍惜當下」給了他們信心和勇氣，每一 個「當下」成就了他們非凡的人生。 再看看時尚界，以創新的方式推出各種新品發佈大 秀，最新的2021-22秋冬系列和旅行系列時裝意念大 膽，型色繽紛；還有古馳的Hortus Deliciarum和寶格麗 的Magnifica高級珠寶系列折射出自然萬象。疫情的種種 負面因素成了激發創意開拓商機的原動力，不也是對「珍 惜當下」的最好詮釋嗎？ 珍惜當下，生活中的每一刻都有意義，所有的喜怒 哀樂都會成為珍貴的生命記憶。

Have you heard of psycho-cybernetics? It’s a system of ideas put forth by Dr. Maxwell Maltz that we can have a more successful and fulfilling life when we have a positive view of ourselves. Here is a quote from him that I find very inspiring: “Live in the present. The past is gone; the future is unknown—but the present is real and your opportunities are now. You must see these opportunities; they must be real for you. The catch is that they can't seem real if your mind is buried in past failures, if you keep reliving old mistakes, old guilts, old tragedies.”

I find this passage very relevant to our collective psyche. The past year and a half has affected everyone, leaving some of us feeling wounded and scarred. But we must not dwell on sad memories. It is time now to move on and start a new chapter in our lives.

Our mandate at eliteGen has always been about helping you to look and feel your best. And so now maybe it’s time to try something new: how about the latest in skincare ampoules, a newly opened restaurant in Toronto or craft beer from British Columbia?

And while you’re at it, refresh your wardrobe with the latest fashion-house collections, decorate yourself with sparkly stones, light up your living space with uber designer fixtures, reward yourself with a bottle of collector’s edition whiskey, and indulge your inner child with a top-performance gaming mobile phone. No matter what you choose, go find joy and savour the moment. You deserve it.

Next, we work on the second part of the quote—seeking success through opportunity. Our cover girl SSUN has an inspiring story to tell. The Shanghai-born singer-songwriter relocated to Canada, hoping to ignite her international music career, but her plans were thwarted by the pandemic. Unfettered, and keeping her nose to the grindstone, this month she is releasing a new album. We can see her flying high— literally. Special thanks to Louis Vuitton and our creative/production team for this cover feature.

Preseverence and determination. This spirit is also evident in the protagonists of our Rolex and Panerai watch features, ocean photographer Sylvia Earle and ChineseAmerican mountaineer Jimmy Chin. Their extraordinary achievements only reaffirm that you have to believe in yourself in order to achieve greatness.

“Our self image, strongly held, essentially determines what we become,” says Dr. Maltz. I hope that you will feel inspired and empowered by our pages, and I wish everyone a wonderful new start.

Yours sincerely,

Leslie Yip Associate Publisher & Editor-in-Chief facebook.com/leslieyip0911 Twitter, Instagram & Tiktok: leslieyip0911 10

Joey Wong 青花從來都特別有中國傳統風情，這條長袖連身裙 給人舒適大方之感。但有所欠缺的是王灝兒選擇了 一對太隆重的高跟鞋，換成淺色會更清新。

Jeannie Chan 這條黑色雛菊圖案連身裙很cute，領口位亦很特別， 很適合陳瀅一向喜歡的少女風。不過下身黑色絲襪 略嫌成熟，脫去的話會更有減齡效果。

短肩帶，背起來正好夾在腋下，Silvia Venturini Fendi於1997設計 出獨特的Baguette法棍包，腋下包的鼻祖就此誕生。不論潮流如何變 遷，它每年都會以新的材質和色彩再現。

A reinvention of the luxury fashion house’s signature bags, designed

by Silvia Venturini Fendi, plays with the bag’s original silhouette, revamping its legendary style.

Fendi Summer 2021 Capsule系列讓我們又重溫Silvia Venturini Fendi簽名包的原汁原味——濃彩的亮片、迷幻的花卉刺綉、蜥蜴紋路 鋪陳。同時，翹曲Fendi標志、塗層帆布、提花面料，又為這款經典的 法棍包注入全新魅力。

Vintage design and materials are also brought back, including kitschy sequins, embroidery and, yes, pink lizard. Reinterpreting the iconic FF logo, the FF Vertigo is distorted and twisted. The psychedelic pattern is printed on coated canvas and pops up on a tobacco jacquard fabric, as well as on canvas punctuated by floral patterns from the luxury brand’s archive.

背着它去逛街，一路搖曳生姿，想不成為焦點都難！

豈只是一個包袋

It’s a Bucket…

It’s a croIssant…

It’s Le PLIage More than 32 million have been sold since it launched in 1993. It is carried by countless celebrities and rumoured to be found in every home in France.

What is the story behind Longchamp’s iconic Le Pliage, and why is it having an identity crisis now?

2021

自1993年推出以來，已售出超過3200萬個的Longchamp Le Pliage 包袋，可能是曝光率最高的包包，被無數名人攜帶使用，更傳聞是法國每 個家庭必備之物。如此具標誌性的Le Pliage背後有何故事？為什麼現在竟 然出現身份危機？ Le Pliage名稱沿自法文動詞，意指「摺疊」，是一個可任意摺疊展 開，只需四步即可摺成口袋書大小的包袋。這個採用俄羅斯皮革手柄、 標誌性翻蓋和多種色彩尼龍材質的包款，靈感是品牌創始人之子Philippe Cassegrain到日本旅行，看見日本摺紙藝術時觸發的。 Le Pliage自1993年推出以來，被譽為設計的傳奇，不單因為首創將 當時法國軍隊使用的尼龍材質跟皮革組合起來，更以其包款簡潔俐落、 堅固實用、輕盈而聞名於全球。對支持環保人士來說，全新Le Pliage® Green永續包款採用環保再生材質，以由塑料水瓶製成的再生聚酰胺帆布 和同色系飾邊製作。 為慶祝推出全新Pilage Green系列，以及禮讚經典的原創風格， Longchamp與洛杉磯精品創意網絡公司Fred & Farid合作，9部短片的迷 你系列和靜態圖像，全部由屢獲國際獎項的知名導演、攝影師、視覺藝術 家和設計師Sander Plug主理。 在短片中，我們會看到這標誌性包袋可以盛載餵馬的乾草，像冰壺一 樣滑過地板，又或是摺疊成牛角包模樣……讓它開始懷疑自己究竟還是不 是一個包袋，於是它甚至參加小組治療、看心理醫生、接受催眠，企圖找 出答案。 當然，這身份危機只是以半開玩笑形式來回應今次的宣傳活動—— 「這不是一個包袋，這是Le Pliage。」這個構思來自Longchamp的首席執行 官Jean Cassegrain和創始人孫女兼藝術總監Sophie Delefontaine平日深 刻觀察所得——Le Pliage不是一個包袋，而是一個概念；代表了富冒險精 神、充滿動力的生活方式，渴望遊歷及積極完成工作……，同時，更是充 滿時尚感。

Longchamp’s iconic creation is not a bag but a concept representing a lifestyle of adventure, movement and energy.

Crafted with Russian leather handles, a signature flap and colourful nylon, Le Pliage is named after the French verb “to fold,” because it can be folded up and stowed away. It is designed by the brand founder’s son, Philippe Cassegrain, who was inspired by the origami art he saw on a trip to Japan in the ’90s.

It has been touted as a design legend since its launch in 1993, because of its ingenuity, as well as its status as the first style to pair nylon and leather in a chic way. It is well loved for its versatility and durability—the original nylon canvas is used by the French army as the floor of its tents.

And for those who are seeking an environmentally friendly alternative, a new Le Pliage Green line is now available, featuring recycled polyamide canvas made from plastic water bottles and tone-on-tone trimmings.

To celebrate the launch of Le Pliage Green and the timeless original style, the brand partnered up with Los Angeles boutique creative network Fred & Farid for a visual campaign. It includes a miniseries of nine short films and still images by internationally-awarded director, photographer, visual artist and designer Sander Plug.

In the films, we see the iconic bag used as a bucket to feed a horse, slide across the floor like a curling stone and folded up like one does with croissant pastry. It begins to question its identity.

“Am I a bag? Am I not a bag?” It even attends a group therapy, sees a psychiatrist and undergoes hypnosis to try to find out the answer.

This identity crisis is actually the tongue-in-cheek theme of the campaign: “It is not a bag. It is Le Pliage.” The inspiration is from an insightful observation from Longchamp’s CEO Jean Cassegrain and Artistic Director Sophie Delefontaine, that: “Le Pliage is not a bag. It is a concept.” It represents the desire to go places and to get things done, all the while looking stylish.

棲身歡愉之園

A gArden of delights gucci high jewellery collection a kaleidoscopic universe Story | Connie Li Photography | Gucci 古馳今年推出由創意總監Alessandro Michele設計的第二個 高級珠寶系列Hortus Deliciarum。在發佈大片中，形象大使Jodie Turner-Smith為斑斕豐富的古馳珠寶更增添了一層好萊塢魅力。

Gucci presents its second High Jewellery collection of 2021, by creative director Alessandro Michele, in a new advertising campaign featuring actress Jodie Turner-Smith.

Hortus Deliciarum，拉丁語「歡愉之園」之意，Michele受到一 日之中光影變幻，天空迷人色調的啓發，將其與品牌鍾愛的多元象 徵性圖案糅合，打造出一個色彩形態變化萬千的「歡愉之園」。

Inspired by the mesmeric hues of the sky at various times of the day, the collection Hortus Deliciarum, Latin for Garden of Delights, echoes the eclectic quixotism of Alessandro’s kaleidoscopic universe.

該系列涵蓋130餘個單品，圍繞四大主題演繹各具特色的品牌 圖案，大部分都是獨一無二之作。歡愉之園裡有傾瀉的瀑布、綻放 的玫瑰，微風拂過的叢林棲息着神秘而古老的獸群，自然界的符號 盡情肆意綻放。

The collection is comprised of more than 130 pieces—largely one of a kind. From waterfalls, softly windblown forestry and the saturated, hypnotic hues of a sky at sunset to the animal kingdom and a rose garden, its motifs are divided into four chapters informed by the majestic beauty of the natural world.

「歡愉之園」將歷史長河蘊含的詩意與當下的美學理念結合，每 款單品都閃耀出大自然原有的光輝和普世之美，就如你身處瞬息萬 變的天空之下，無論在世界的哪個角落，只要仰頭觀望，簡單而純 粹的愉悅就會從心頭油然升起。

Drawing on symbolic motifs, the collection takes its cue from the ephemeral yet recurring beauty of the changing sky and its shifting colours and constellations—and the simple, spiritual pleasure of looking up, wherever you are in the world.

BaroQue SpIral Artemisia Gentileschi是17世紀意大利巴羅克派最具有開創性 的女畫家，她對螺旋圖案的複雜幾何形狀特別感興趣，認為螺旋 是生命和進化的象徵。Baroque Spiral項鏈以凸圓形紅寶石、祖母 綠、藍寶石和閃爍的鑽石呈螺旋式排列，達成3D效果，是對寶格麗 六十年代標誌性風格的最新詮釋。

Seventeenth-century painter artemisia Gentileschi is one of the most celebrated artists of the Baroque movement. and this necklace is a reflection of her rebellious, indomitable spirit. using the spiral as a symbol of life and evolution, cabochon rubies, emeralds, sapphires and diamonds are masterfully set, all creating a contemporary interpretation of Bulgari’s signature style of the 1960s.

SSUn may be a new to the music scene but her drive and talent is already getting her noticed by heavyweights Story | Iris Chui Photography | Simon Boucher-Harris Wardrobe and accessories | Louis Vuitton 音樂是國際語言—動人的旋 律，撩發共鳴的歌詞，均足以觸動 人心。然而，以音樂為職業的路卻 不易走，特別是由華裔女歌手演繹 騷靈、R&B和 Pop英文歌。新晉加 藉華裔唱作歌手SSUN孫仙易今年2 月推出了第一張個人唱碟，雖然暫 時仍未至一鳴天下響，卻已贏得樂 壇舉足輕重的Nineteen 85和Niko (OVO)的支持，踏出亮麗一步。

Music is an international language. Melodies can stir emotions and lyrics that resonate can touch every heart.

That said, pursuing a career in music isn’t always an easy path, especially for an Asian musician who dabbles in soul, R&B and pop.

Fresh to the music scene, Chinese-Canadian singer SSUN released her first single in February. While it wasn’t an overnight hit, it has won applause from heavyweights like Nineteen85 and OVO Niko.

EliteGen recently caught up with the budding star to chat about her exhilarating step forward.

eG ︰可以介紹一下自己嗎？ SSUN︰我在上海出生和成長，中文名字是「孫仙易」，「仙」 是父母希望我有一顆善良的心，「易」則是希望所有難題都可以容 易解決。2015年夏天以國際學生身份來到多倫多，修讀新媒體。 eG ︰是什麼驅使你踏上音樂路？ SSUN︰我父母都從事音樂工作，在家裡總是樂聲不絕，所 以由小時候開始，音樂已是我生命中不可或缺的重要一環，我的 古典鋼琴技巧亦是由父親教授。他們沒有強迫我學音樂，卻培養 出我這方面的興趣；他們會引導我自發地練習唱歌，幫助我建立 自己的風格。對我們一家來說，音樂更是很好的溝通途徑，不過 直到近幾年我才真正有信心和其他人分享自己的音樂。 eG︰你會怎樣形容自己的音樂？ SSUN︰很難一概而論，我會說那是Soul、R&B和Pop的混合 體，因為我喜歡不斷作嘗試和挑戰，希望可以融合不同元素，又 或是從不同風格中找出最適合自己的一套來。我創作時很視乎自 己的心情，讓情緒帶動，過程中可能摻雜了不同事物，雖然成果 可能有點雜，但這正代表了真正的我。 eG︰今年二月推出第一張個人大碟，感覺如何？ SSUN︰是筆墨難於形容的感覺。那是我踏出的重要第一 步，心情很忐忑，但樂迷和業界的反應卻超乎想象。特別是見到 自己的作品在電台節目和Billboards出現，仿如發夢般很不真實。 我現在正着手明年初推出的大碟，不住提醒自己要走出舒適圈， 要推動自己做得更好，希望讓大家知道之前的大碟只是開始，他 們將見到表現愈來愈好的SSUN。

Q: Who is SSUN? Tell us about yourself.

A: I was born and raised in Shanghai, but I moved to Toronto in the summer of 2015. I came here as an international student to study New Media… and it just kind of happened. I mean, I was raised with music as a huge part of my life, but it wasn’t until recently that I truly felt confident enough to share my music with the world.

Q: What got you into music?

A: My parents are definitely the key driver that helped me first get into music. Much of my musical style has been adopted from what I have learned from them. Both of my parents work in the music industry. My father taught me how to play the piano, through classical training, so it’s always been a huge part of my upbringing. For me and my parents, music is an incredibly important form of communication.

Q: For those who have not heard of you, describe your music?

A: I would describe it as a mix of soul, R&B and pop. It’s hard to describe it concisely because I always try to challenge myself by experimenting, combining various elements and taking inspiration from different styles to try to find the style that suits me best. My writing often depends on my mood. I really let emotion drive the creative process so, in the end, what you hear is really me—a little bit of everything.

Q: You released your first EP in February this year. What was that like?

A: I don’t think words can do it justice. I mean, it was my first big project, but while it was nerve-wracking, the response from fans and the industry was overwhelming. It was such a surreal experience to have my work showcased on billboards and on the radio.

cover girl eG︰樂壇很有影響力的Niko (OVO)和 Nineteen 85都 支持你，你是怎樣認識他們的？

Q: We noticed you got support from some very influential people like OVO Niko and Nineteen85. How did that come about?

SSUN︰幾年前我在一個派對表演，Niko (OVO)也是座 上客，朋友介紹我們認識，我們談音樂，談時裝，說個不 亦樂乎，之後也保持聯絡。他還把我介紹給Nineteen 85認 識。在我發展音樂事業的路途上，他們毫不吝嗇地提供意 見，給了我很大的支持。

A: Well, Niko and I met at a party a few years back. I was performing and Niko was one of the guests. A mutual friend introduced us later that night and it was a really cool experience to connect with him. We talked about fashion and music, and we ended up keeping in touch. He then introduced me to 85 and they have both been a great support to me, continuing to give me advice on my development and growth as an artist.

eG︰在開闖音樂路上，遇過什麼難忘經歷？ SSUN︰直至目前為止，我還是挺幸運的。小時候由父 母啟發我對音樂的興趣，他倆亦一直是我的最強後盾。我讀 高中時，每逢有大型活動，校長都會讓我表演，在我十一年 級時，更幫助我舉辦個人音樂會，對當時小小年紀的我來說 是很大的鼓勵。而現在的合作團隊不但是行內精英，更認同 我對音樂的熱誠和創作，他們的支持驅動我做得更好。 同時，我認為無論目標和所熱衷是什麽，最重要是堅 持，不放棄，特別是遇上阻滯，感覺沮喪的時候。我的經驗 告訴我︰只要定立目標便鼓起幹勁往前走，雖然永不知道前 面將會發生的事，但無論結果為何，過程中見到進展，那份 快樂和滿足感已是一份收穫。 eG︰你何時寫出第一首作品？靈感源自何處？ SSUN︰第一張唱片中的主打歌曲《Dear Lover》是第一 首全由我寫的歌曲。記得去年3月，全世界都因新冠疫情而 備受影響，看見很多人被迫跟自己的親人摯友分離，有些更 是永別，我將這種悲傷的心情投放到這首歌曲中。我希望大 家在聽這首歌曲時，感受到那份深情，同時謹記要珍惜眼前 人。 eG︰可否分享工作上遇過最難忘的評語？ SSUN︰說起來也覺有趣。我的唱片監製Niko向來很嚴 謹，當我跟他提起製作音樂時的意念時，他總是很認真和 一矢中的指出有待改進的地方。第一次在錄音室聽到《Dear Lover》的Demo時，他卻是一言不發，沉默了整整兩秒鐘， 然後爆發出掌聲。對我來說，這是迄今為止我收到的最好反 饋，那一刻我知道我們創作了一首非常特別的歌曲。 eG︰ 有計劃發展亞洲或中國市場嗎？ SSUN︰因為我與上海的密切聯繫，在那裡出生長大， 唱中文歌曲的機會跟英文歌曲一樣多。我發現兩者之間有很 多不同的音樂製作和演唱方法—中國歌曲傾向於注重旋律和 使用演唱技巧來表達情感，而西方音樂則較少結構化的方 法。我希望將我的東方背景和經歷的西方文化結合起來，創 造出自己獨特的音樂風格。所以如能有機會回到中國發展和 分享自己的音樂風格，我將會很高興和自豪。 eG︰疫情有所紓緩，重開後你最想做什麽事？ SSUN︰過去兩年實在發生了太多事，我迫不及待想跟 朋友相聚、吃飯或看電影，以及回中國看望父母。同時很渴 望可以參與大型的現場表演，回到錄音室正常工作……看似 都是簡單的事﹐但實在渴望能跟我愛的人做所愛的事。 eG︰有些人會將某些年輕華人定型為「富二代」而忽略 他們的才華，你有何感想？ SSUN︰我認為每個人都有自己的個性和生活方式，沒 有人應該以先入為主的錯誤觀念來判斷他人。我鼓勵大家要 深入了解，不要流於表面。中國人聰明、謙遜、勤奮，紀律 性強，不要被錯誤說法而誤判。其實這同樣適用於所有種 族、國家和背景的人。

Q: The music business can be very challenging. Can you share some unforgettable incidents.

A: I’m so lucky that I have had support every step of the way on my music path. My parents led me into music from the start at a very young age, and they have also been my biggest support. Then, my high-school principal gave me huge encouragement by inviting me to perform at every big event that happened at our school, and even helped me hold my own concert in Grade 11, which truly meant a lot to me. Now, I have a huge support system with the best team, who share my passion in music and creation. The support they provide drives me to be the best version of myself.

I think no matter what your goal or passion is, the most important thing is to not give up, especially when you are feeling like you will never be on the right track. My experience has shown me that once you’re on the path towards a career or passion that is meant for you and aligns with your goals, you never know what can happen. At the same time, you’ll find the progress you make allows you to feel fulfilled and be happy, regardless of the outcome.

Q: When did you write your first song? Where did you find your inspiration?

A: Actually, “Dear Lover” is the first complete song I’ve written. I wrote this song last March when the pandemic started. It’s so sad to see people being separated from their dearest family and friends, in some cases forever.

Therefore, I tried to take my feelings and channel them into this song. Along with telling this story, I wanted everyone who listens to this song to feel that emotion and remember to cherish what they have right now.

Q: What are some of the harshest/best comments you have come across thus far.

A: It’s funny, but it’s actually a wordless comment from my producer, Niko.

He’s always very serious and precise about the music ideas l share with him and he can always point out where there is room to improve. However, when he heard the “Dear Lover” demo for the first time in-studio, he didn’t say anything. Instead, he stayed silent for a full two seconds, then he burst into applause and, for me, it was the best feedback I’ve received so far. I knew we had created something really special in that moment.

Q: Any plans for the Asia/Chinese market? If so, will the music created be much different from now?

A: Yes, because of my close connection to Shanghai, being born and raised there, I would welcome any opportunity and would be proud to perform in the country where I first immersed myself in the music styles I’m always creating and pursuing. I am always looking for a new approach to my music. For me, it’s always evolving during the creation process.

Q: What are you looking forward to most as pandemic restrictions begin to be lifted?

A: I can’t wait to hang out with my friends, start travelling again and to visit my parents. For me, I’m most excited for the simple things, like catching up with friends, going for dinner or going to a movie. And, of course, I can’t wait for the performance opportunities. I haven’t really had the chance to perform live for a big crowd, as it’s always been smaller performances here and there.

Getting back into the studio goes hand in hand with this. It’s all about getting back to the things I love, with the people I love.

Q: Some people stereotype young Chinese as “young and rich” and overlook their talents. How do you feel about that?

A: I think everyone has their own personality and lifestyle, and no one should be stereotyped. Instead of judgment, I always encourage that we look to find what’s under the surface. The Chinese are smart, humble, hard workers who are well disciplined, and should not be misjudged due to stereotypes.

This is true for all people, of all races, nations and backgrounds.

eG︰你喜歡怎麼樣的時裝？最喜歡的服裝品牌是什麼？ SSUN︰我喜歡經典、高檔中見低調，以及一些復古和街頭 元素的服飾。我很想在永恆經典和年輕風格之間找到平衡。Louis Vuitton 向來是我衣櫥裡的必備品，現在能穿上由這品牌贊助的服 飾拍今期的封面，真是一種令人難以置信且非常酷的體驗。 eG︰這個秋冬，你有何必備服飾？ SSUN︰我愛秋天時裝。秋天擁有最完美的天氣，不會太熱 或太冷。我喜歡穿上超大號服裝，例如是連帽衛衣，又或是牛仔 褲配輕身外套。此外，以厚實的針織衫襯珠寶首飾營造時尚感， 也是另一種我喜歡的造型。 eG︰你是那種隨心而行，還是緊跟程序的人？ SSUN︰我總是讓心情主導，但我會盡力跟從程序安排，不 會影響大局。就等於我愛各式美食—中國菜、日本料理、意大利 菜……但我會留心份量，那就可以樣樣都吃。我盡量每天都做運 動，但密度還得看我的工作表了。 eG︰你最喜歡哪位歌手？ SSUN︰太多了。但最近我聽得最多的是Kiana Lede、 SZA和Jorja Smith。我亦喜歡Snoh Aalegra、H.E.R和Ariana Grande，當然還有The Weekend。 eG︰誰是你的偶像？ SSUN︰我的頭號偶像毫無疑問是我媽媽。她對身邊每個人 都那麽關懷、友善和愛護。但我最欣賞她強大的內在力量，她對 所做的一切都充滿熱情，亦鼓勵我追求理想。我真的很感恩一直 有她的智慧和支持伴我前行。

Q: Describe SSUN’s fashion. What are some of your favourite brands?

A: I like to have a mix of classic, luxury low-key pieces, and some vintage and streetwear elements. I try to find that balance between timeless and young styles. Louis Vuitton has been a staple in my closet for a very long time, and it’s been a mind-boggling—and very cool—experience to now be sponsored by the brand for the cover of the EliteGen Fall issue.

Q: What is your top fashion must-have this fall?

A: I love fall fashion. It’s the perfect weather to layer up without getting too hot or cold. Personally, I love to throw on oversized pieces, like a hoodie or pairing denim with a lighter coat. Pairing chunky knits with some jewellery to make it pop is another fall look I adore.

Q: Are you the follow-a-strict-schedule or go-with-your-mood type of person?

A: I always let my mood inform my approach to anything. However, I do my best to keep on track with my schedule and follow a big-picture structure. For instance, I eat everything that’s yummy, including Chinese, Japanese, Italian, and more. However, I’m mindful of my portion sizing, so I can try a little bit of everything. And I do try to exercise every day, but the intensity depends on my working schedule.

Q: Who are your favourite singers?

A: There are so many to choose from. Recently, I’ve been listening to tons of Kiana Ledé, SZA and Jorja Smith. I also love Snoh Aalegra, H.E.R and Ariana Grande—and, of course, The Weeknd.

Q: Who are your role models?

A: My mom is definitely my No. 1 role model. She’s caring, loving and kind to those around her, and she has an inner strength I’ve always admired. She’s passionate about everything she does and has encouraged me to follow my passion, too. I’m so grateful to have her wisdom and support in my life.

Beauty potions in tiny single-dose glass vials seem to be popping up out of nowhere lately. Beauty bloggers show them off on Instagram, while celebrities like Taiwanese artiste Meifan Chen, who is billed as “Taiwan’s hottest ‘auntie’”, swears by the Bright Repair Concentrate developed by beauty guru Robin Niu Er. They certainly look different from the usual bottles and jars, but are they worth the hype?

一些皮膚專家，包括Vichy國際科研總監兼藥劑學博士 Dr.Marion Nielsen表示，這種濃縮小瓶有多重好處：「密封式 以及防曬的包裝能抵禦紫外光、熱力及氧化，從而保護活性成 份。因此產品配方毋須加入防腐劑之餘，更可把活性成份的濃 度提升，一開瓶即時塗抹，達至最新鮮的高濃度修護能量。」 高濃度的活性成份加上精確的一次性份量，令安瓶成為 急救護膚療程的最佳之選。妳可以針對肌膚的問題選擇合適 的安瓶療程，療程一般為期一星期至一個月。由Dr. Yannis Alexandrides創立的護膚品牌111Skin最近推出一星期的療程 專門針對五大皮膚問題如暗啞及缺水。達至最佳效果的秘訣 是什麼？Beautymark Solutions的宣教總監Machael Varicchio 說：「產品一開瓶便要立即使用，因為小瓶的設計是避免醫藥 用配方暴露於氧氣之中。」

大家亦可把安瓶加入到日常的皮膚護理程序。三度榮獲 德國最佳美容及化妝品大獎的Jean D’ Arcel，其加拿大副總裁 Peggy Fu表示，很多顧客為了在聖誕節以最佳一面示人，會 在很早之前便購入安瓶，然後把安瓶加入平日的護膚程序，每 星期使用一次或兩次，而非在聖誕前才進行急救。有興趣把日 常家居護膚提升至另一層次的朋友，不妨考慮該品牌環保且可 持續的Hydratante Intense Moisture安瓶療程。

According to some skincare experts, they are. Dr. Marion Nielsen, Vichy’s international scientific director and doctor in pharmacy, says this particular format has multiple advantages.

“Their hermetic and photo-protective pack preserves the actives against UV, heat and oxidation,” she says. “This allows our labs to create minimalist formula without preservatives.

This conditioning also gives the possibility to integrate actives into high concentrations and to deliver all their power when applying, just after opening.”

The possibility of offering higher concentration of active ingredients and precise dosage makes ampoules a good format for intensive booster treatments. These programs allow you to choose a specific ampoule to address your skin concerns at a particular moment, and could range from a week to a month.

111Skin by Dr. Yannis Alexandrides recently launched five targeted one-week systems to address specific concerns, such as clarity and hydration—the secret to reaping maximum benefit.

“Use it immediately upon opening,” says Machael Varicchio, education director at Beautymark Solutions. “The reason for the glass vials is to protect the clinical-grade formulations from exposure to oxygen.”

Ampoules can also be incorporated into your regular home-care regime. Peggy Fu, Canadian vice-president of Jean D’Arcel, a three-time winner of Germany’s Best Facial Care and Cosmetics award, says many customers stock up on ampoules for their pre-Christmas advent calendar.

However, instead of using one a day leading up to Christmas, they use one or two ampoules each week throughout the year as regular treats for their skin. Those looking to level up their home-care regime can also check out the clean and sustainable Hydratante Intense Moisture.

滋潤黑玫瑰

SiSley’S Black RoSe Story | Leslie Yip 黑玫瑰的珍貴，在於它的花期只在5月及6月，在玫瑰盛 放之時必須以人手採摘，而且每年就僅有一次機會。 原本是深紅色的黑玫瑰由於色澤太深，讓人錯以為是黑 色。花形圓潤飽滿，每當光線投射到花瓣時，呈現如絲絨般 的質感，說的就是由法國東南部House of Meilland玫瑰園繁 殖的巴卡拉黑玫瑰，玫瑰園至今已是第六代經營。 這種黑玫瑰亦是Sisley經典護膚系列中的皇牌成份。 真正的黑色素在玫瑰的基因中並不存在，但玫瑰繁殖人 員卻能令無變為有。他們利用技術增加花瓣的色素，從而成 功繁殖出巴卡拉黑玫瑰。巴卡拉黑玫瑰於2000年首度公開亮 相，是世界上色澤最深的玫瑰品種之一。

The ingredient story is extremely unique as the Black Rose only blooms between May and June and must be plucked by hand once a year when the roses are open and most fragrant.

The garnet colour is so deep, it gives the illusion that it is black. The flower form is full and round, and when the petals catch the light, they seem like velvet. This is the Black Baccara rose, created by the House of Meilland, sixthgeneration rose breeders based in southeastern France.

This is also the black rose behind Sisley’s iconic skincare line.

Real black does not exist in roses because they lack the gene for it, but that doesn’t stop rose breeders from trying to create one. The exotic Black Baccara is obtained by increasing the dose of colour pigments in the petals. First presented to the public in the 2000s, it is one of the darkest roses in existence.

Black Rose Cream Mask, 60ml | $210

Black Rose Beautifying Emulsion, 200 ml | $225

Black Rose Eye Contour Fluid, 14 ml | $195

Black Rose Precious Face Oil, 25 ml | $310 Black Rose Skin Infusion Cream, 50 ml | $260

研究發現這款頂級玫瑰花擁用卓越的護膚功效，促使 Sisley研製成黑玫瑰面膜。用家表示，面膜的質地不但絲滑 潤密，用後皮膚更即時恢復活力，肌膚感覺清新而且充滿光 澤，產品因而全球熱賣。 Sisley的科研總監José Ginestar解釋：「黑玫瑰含豐富類 胡蘿蔔素，能有效抵禦自由基及有助肌膚吸收營養，令皮膚 滋潤幼滑，」她更表示：「每朵玫瑰的40片花瓣含豐富活性分 子，為了更完整地保存其功能，每年5月及6月首次開花時會 以人手小心翼翼地採摘。」 玫瑰花精油萃取深入皮膚抵禦自由基，而水漾萃取則好 像美顏玉液撫平及柔滑肌膚。除了最先面世的面膜外，整個 系列選有面部精華油、水凝霜、亮眼水凝精露和身體乳霜。

After studying the benefits of this exceptional rose, Sisley launched the Black Rose Cream Mask. Beyond its sensorial experience, users find an instant effect on the skin’s vitality, freshness and radiance, leading to its worldwide success.

“The Black Rose is rich in carotenoids, which are very good free-radical traps and help bring nutrition, emolliency and softness to the skin,” explains José Ginestar, Sisley’s scientific director. “Each rose is formed of 40 petals that are highly concentrated in active molecules. In order to preserve their full power, they are picked by hand, only between May and June, as they first bloom.”

The oily extract of the rose infuses deep down to deliver anti-free radical properties, while the aqueous extract works as a beauty elixir to smooth and soften the skin. In addition to the original Cream Mask, the collection has now expanded to include the Precious Face Oil, Skin Infusion Cream, Eye Contour Fluid and Beautifying Body Emulsion.

Nearly 30 years after Issey Miyake Parfums released L’Eau d’Issey, the brand is opening a new chapter in its scent story. Drawing inspiration once again from life-giving water, the creative team takes us to its poetic original form: one single drop. Hence the name A Drop d’Issey and a flat, round glass bottle mimicking the flattening of a water droplet as it lands on a surface.

香水造型的創作概念不難理解，那香氣又如何呢？調香師 Ane Ayo決定挑戰自己，選用「沉默的花香」，即採用以傳統萃取方 法如蒸餾法和冷吸法都不容易展露香氣的花卉。最後她揀選了小 巧而且平易近人的丁香花。 就好像侍酒師能識別不同紅酒的特性，Ayo把丁香香氣的特 性重組再造，這全憑她在Grasse受訓多年的歷練以及周遊列國所 獲得的經驗。 她先以杏仁奶帶出柔和的前調，再以花香為主軸散發自然氣 息。為了把充滿陽光氣息的丁香香氣完全展露出來，她配以細膩 的香橙花和玫瑰，打造光芒煥發且叫人心動的花香；茴香令丁香 花的香氣更加突出；茉莉花把丁香花包裹着，提升其香氣。圓潤 的麝香為後調，加上香蘭素和龍涎香，令人倍感柔和。木質清香 叫人舒適愜意、寬慰安心，而且十分療癒，無論搭配清爽的麻質 連身裙又或暖洋洋的毛絨圍巾都一樣合適。 別出心裁的瓶身出自美國設計師Todd Bracher手筆，設計簡 約的圓潤瓶身有神來之筆——剛好可放入大姆指的凹位，以及柔 軟的瓶蓋，只需輕按便可釋出香水。創作團隊更以可持續發展為 元素，由香水設計及包裝，至細意挑選的成份，糅合大自然與新 科技，達至保護環境的目標。

The visual concept may be easy to grasp, but what does it smell like? Perfumer Ane Ayo decides to challenge herself to encapsulate the beauty of “silent flowers”—those which refuse to yield their scent via traditional extraction methods, such as distillation and enfleurage. She chooses the dainty and familiar lilac.

Ayo has to recompose the characteristics of the lilac’s aroma, much like a sommelier discerns the many nuances of a wine’s bouquet. This is where she draws experience from years of training in Grasse, France, as well as extensive travel around the world.

Dissecting its olfactory composition, she uses almond milk in the top notes to set a soft tone, while a botanical accord reinforces the natural feel. To magnify the sunny nature of the flower, she pairs delicate orange blossom with rose to create a radiant floral heart. A touch of star anise echoes the physical facet of the lilac floret and jasmine lactones enhance the enveloping effect.

This whole bouquet rests on a base of creamy musks, with biovanillin and Ambrox amplifying the sensation of softness. The fragrance is musky, cozy and reassuring, a cocoon of comfort that is as much at ease with a summer linen dress as with a warm and fuzzy cashmere wrap.

The distinctive bottle created by American designer Todd Bracher combines the simplicity of a perfectly round glass pebble with a tactile touch—a dip to rest your thumb and the gentle press of a built-in soft touch cap to release the scent.

Throughout this project, sustainability is top of mind. From the design of the bottle and box, to the carefully considered selection of ingredients, nature and technology come together to reinterpret and protect nature.

勞力士最近在rolex.org發佈了一部名為《恆動星球：海洋英 雄》的紀錄片，該片匯集了傳奇海洋攝影師暨勞力士腕錶測試者 Sylvia Earle，及一群前衛海洋科學家，講述全球共同協作，一 起保護脆弱海洋生態系統的故事。 在將近一個世紀的漫長歲月裏，勞力士一直給予開拓性探 險家積極支持。這些探險家去到世界最極端的地方深入探索， 突破極限，揭示大自然的奧秘。從上世紀八十年代到本世紀 初，包括登山者、深潛者在內的無數探險家和科學家，與勞力 士結下不解之緣，成為勞力士腕錶的測試者，這些時計與他們 一道經歷令人震撼的奇妙旅程，一次次打破極限，將各自的能 力推向更高的邊界。

For nearly a century, Rolex has been an active supporter of pioneering explorers, individuals who have pushed back the boundaries of human endeavour by venturing to the most extreme places on Earth to shed light on the natural world.

So it’s fitting that Rolex recently released Perpetual Planet: Heroes of the Oceans on its website, a documentary film that brings together legendary oceanographer and Rolex Testimonee Sylvia Earle with a cast of pioneering marine scientists. Here, they chronicle the work being undertaken to protect the fragile ecosystems of the world’s oceans.

Since the 1980s, many explorers—including mountaineers, divers and scientists—have associated themselves with Rolex, testing their abilities and endurance while equipped with Oyster Perpetual watches.

意大利奢華腕錶品牌沛納海，以品牌大使美國華裔職業登山家 金國威非凡的人生歷程為靈感，呈獻全新腕錶系列。

Italian luxury watchmaker Panerai has released a new collection that takes its inspiration from the life journey of brand ambassador Jimmy Chin.

金國威是一位舉世知名的攝影師兼高山運動員，亦是電影製 作人及環保主義者。品牌特別推出Panerai Submersible Chrono Flyback J. Chin Edition及Panerai Submersible Chrono Flyback J. Chin Xperience Edition向他致敬。他的睿智、決心及創意令他締造 非凡成就，包括成為極少數由珠穆朗瑪峰速降滑雪的完成者之一。 他有份導演的紀錄片《赤手登峰》更贏得奧斯卡最佳紀錄片獎。

The Panerai Submersible Chrono Flyback J. Chin Edition and the Panerai Submersible Chrono Flyback J. Chin Xperience Edition pay homage to the renowned photographer, mountain climber, filmmaker and environmentalist. His intelligence, determination and creativity have guided him to historic accomplishments, including becoming one of the only people to ski off the summit of Mount Everest. He also won an Academy Award for co-directing the documentary Free Solo.

「我的工作很大部分都在說故事，藉此增加我們對世界的認 識，」金國威說：「沛納海的品牌故事及多年來致力製作性能卓越的設 備以應付歷險探索，這個信念正正吸引了我。」

“So much of my work has to do with storytelling that will broaden the understanding of the world around us,” says Chin. “I was attracted to collaborating with Panerai because of the brand’s unique story and long heritage of creating tools that enable exploration.”

The watch will be available in a limited edition of only 14 pieces.

Aptly named, the Xperience Edition includes an opportunity to join an excursion to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where Chin resides for much of the year.

Each watch features a trapezoidal pin buckle and two straps: a dual-material strap composed of rubber and grey technical fabric and another one made mainly of recycled plastic, in grey with light blue stitching.

瑞典光譜

IllumInatIng desIgn sweden’s Pholc blends art into stylish lighting—and living Story | Zu Hui Photography | Courtesy of Pholc

瑞典設計品牌Pholc成立於2015年，但超過半世紀以來，它體內 流着會發光的血——前生是瑞典南部傳統照明品牌，自1962年開始生 產燈具，不過今日有全新理念及品牌形象。 Pholc來自瑞典南部一個叫Småland的地區，由一對夫妻Maja及 Samuel Norburg主理。Småland字面意思是small land。原來設計不 一定來自大城市，這個寧靜地區多年來都是瑞典品味搖籃。這裡玻璃 製品廠多的是，手指隨意指一指，就是一所可以追溯到十八世紀的玻 璃工房。這裡也是眾多瑞典家具設計師的故鄉，包括他們的國民設計 師Bruno Mathsson，你不熟悉Mathsson都一定見過他筆下的家俬，甚 至買過抄他款的家俬。很多瑞典古老家具廠仍在用櫸木和白蠟木造可 以坐一世的椅子。順便提一提，Ikea也是在Småland成立的。 Småland有另一優良傳統，就是他們瑞典南部人以勤勞著稱，經 驗豐富之餘要求又嚴格。有這種品牌文化，Pholc跟全部來自瑞典的 設計師合作，成品便都非常北歐非常瑞典。自Monika Mulder以她的 Mobil燈贏了瑞典Elle Deco設計獎，Mobil就成為Pholc的招牌作，一燈 風行。

Swedish designer brand Pholc has been illuminating the world for nearly 60 years, even though it was only incorporated in 2015. Evolving from its previous incarnation as a traditional lighting brand in southern Sweden dating back to 1962, it continues to shine with new ideas under a different brand image.

Founded by couple Maja and Samuel Norburg, Pholc hails from the southern Swedish province of Småland (small land), proof that high design doesn’t always come from big cities. This tranquil area has been a cradle of Swedish style for years.

Glass manufacturers are aplenty here, with some workshops dating back to the 18th century. The region is also home to many Swedish furniture designers, including national icon Bruno Mathsson, whose works are well known and have inspired other furniture designers. Beech and ash are still used widely in many classic Swedish furniture plants here, including iconic Ikea.

Småland is synonymous with hardworking, experienced and meticulous artisans, including those at Pholc. A case in point is Pholc’s signature product Mobil, which earned its designer, Monika Mulder, the Elle Decoration Swedish Design Award.

Strangely, though, this “designed in Sweden, made in Sweden and awarded in Sweden” creation was actually inspired by New York. Mulder had in mind a simple and functional lamp for a New York loft. She blended the black finish on many of New York’s balconies with the lights on the Brooklyn Bridge to deliver a unique Swedish design.

apollo, by broberg & ridderstråle 系列有多種顏色，可以單獨使用，亦可以配搭不同顏色，掛高掛低起落有致。 Available in a range of colours, it can be used stand-alone, or in a mix of colours and composition.

Romb, by broberg & ridderstråle 肉桂色系加上瓦通條紋，令Romb座檯燈俊朗剛健。 the cinnamon tone and rippled effect give it a masculine appeal.

不過世事奇妙，這個出自瑞典設計師瑞典品牌瑞典製造瑞典得獎的 燈，靈感卻來自紐約。Mulder開始幫Pholc設計Mobil時，只想要一盞可以 在紐約閣樓上使用、好看簡潔又好用的燈。設計師想到紐約那些黑鐵騎樓風 光，以及布魯克林大橋上圓形路燈散發出來的夜色。Mobil就是結合這兩種 紐約重要元素，成就一盞瑞典/北歐設計。Mobil最正之處是那些發光波波可 以擰來擰去，因應需要調校位置。不過看上去又一體成形，乾淨簡潔優雅。

發光藝術 北歐人比較內斂，不過瑞典人在北歐多國中又比較開心鬼馬。Mulder 跟Pholc的另一個合作，同樣展示了她的瑞典式鬼馬。Bounce表面是低調金 屬物料加一個個圓渾發光波波，這些表面上嚴肅簡潔的元素好鬼馬地連接一 起，一個又一個半圓變成一個又一個波浪層層疊，搶眼跳躍。設計師建議所 有能容得下長檯的家，上面吊一盞Bounce就堪稱完美。 Kandinsky吊燈的靈感則來自同名俄羅斯畫家Wassily Kandinsky上世 紀二十年代的抽象圓圈畫，渾圓波波與穿插其中的發光長矛飾演燈的主角。 設計師Mats Broberg及Johan Ridderstråle將Småland特有的吹玻璃技藝盡 情發揮，把度身訂造的光源融入玻璃波波之中，無縫接合。燈光從手工吹 製的煙燻玻璃中散射出來，未開燈時它已經是一幅畫，開燈後就是一種獨特 氛圍。 Romb是Kandinsky，Broberg＆Ridderstråle這對瑞典組合剛剛為 Pholc設計的座檯燈。平日他們用好多瓦通紙來砌建築模型，便忽發奇想不 如用瓦通紙來砌一盞燈。Romb結構非常簡單，用瓦通紙摺成一大一細菱 形，上大下小。上面的大菱形當燈罩，下面的細菱形當燈座。無論是燈頂還 是燈座，Romb都可以透射出別緻光線。當然，推出市面的Romb不是瓦通 紙造，換上堅固耐用又易清潔的金屬物料。Broberg＆Ridderstråle希望這盞 燈未開時都像一件雕塑。這就是Pholc的理念：透過燈光將藝術融入生活。

Mobil’s pendants can be turned every which way to form a variety of desired compositions, yet remain one cohesive, elegant form with clean lines.

A BouNcY, whIMSIcAl SPIN Scandinavians have a reputation for being relatively reserved, but the Swedes may be the playful lot among them.

This is apparent in Bounce, another Mulder creation. opal glass globes hanging off the tips of understated metal arches look straight-laced and minimalistic on their own, but when many pendants are added, they provide a bouncy and whimsical spin—perfect hanging above an oblong table.

The Kandinsky, on the other hand, was inspired by the abstract circular paintings of 20th-century Russian artist wassily Kandinsky. Its form consists of a long spear piercing a sphere.

Designers Mats Broberg and Johan Ridderstråle celebrate Småland’s tradition of hand-blown glass with this piece, seamlessly shaped custom-made smoked glass spheres that glow. It’s an art piece in its own right, and its soft diffused light defines the mood of a space.

Romb is a table lamp designed by Broberg & Ridderstråle.

The duo experimented by utilizing rippled cardboard, a material used mostly for making architectural models. The Romb design is simple, with two rhombus forms of different sizes stacked together to cast light upward and downward. The final product is not made with cardboard, but with durable and easy-to-clean custom-pressed steel.

Broberg & Ridderstråle intended it as a sculpture, in tune with Pholc’s ethos of blending art into stylish living through illumination.

As British Columbia continues its pandemic recovery, travel restrictions have been eased and out-of-province visitors are being welcomed. What could be more enjoyable than savouring a cold craft beer on a sunny terrace?

Nautical Nonsense Pineapple Sour with Pink Sea Salt (4% ABV | 8 IBU) Slackwater Brewing (on the Penticton Ale Trail) 瀰漫菠蘿香，是酸味和鹹味的有趣踫撞。 It is light and refreshing with sweet pineapple, balanced by a light, tart body and a gentle salty finish.

The BC Ale Trail was launched five years ago, a joint project of Destination British Columbia and the BC Craft Brewers Guild. The self-guided itineraries feature ale trails spanning five regions of the province, highlighting more than 200 breweries and the super, natural landscapes that surround them and feature a wide range of outdoor activities.

Breweries across British Columbia have reopened indoor tasting rooms, and most of them also have outdoor spaces to welcome visitors. More than 50 new beers were released this summer, and the supplies are plentiful.

Visit bcaletrail.ca for all the details.

Faux Paw Cherry Saison (6.5% ABV | 25 IBU) Mt. Begbie Brewing (on the Kootenay Rockies East Ale Trail) 數年前，當Mt. Begbie Brewing Co.正在建造新的釀酒坊時，一隻熊偶然走過 剛澆完的混凝土泥板上，留下一串腳印。這款限量發行的啤酒採用令人愉悅 的甜櫻桃醬釀製，以好奇熊的足印為標志，以示紀念。 When Mt. Begbie was building its new brewery last year, a bear walked across a freshly poured concrete slab, leaving its paw prints forever preserved in the brewery’s floor. This limited-release beer, brewed with cherry purée, celebrates that curious bear’s faux paw.

More Often Than Not Apricot Blonde Ale (4.7% ABV | 18 IBU) Twin City Brewing & Dog Mountain Brewing (on the Vancouver Island Part 2 Ale Trail) 由Port Alberni兩家釀酒廠合作的這款色澤金黃的啤酒，摻入了淡淡的柑橘類 simcoe和果香的amarillo，然後以香杏為調料，帶青檸的清新感覺。 A collaboration between two Port Alberni breweries, this fruit-forward blonde ale is lightly hopped with citrusy Simcoe and fruity Amarillo, then conditioned on apricot.

Bayard Farmhouse Saison (5.5% ABV | 25 IBU) Mistral Riesling Saison (6% ABV | 18 IBU) Strange Fellows Brewing (on the Yeast Vancouver Ale Trail) Saison原是專為比利時和法國北部工人釀製的啤酒，口味清爽。精選酵母、小 麥及緩慢的釀造過程帶來不一樣的口感，帶有白胡椒的野味辛辣及梨果的微酸 滋味；Mistral Riesling Saison則是曾於釀製過雷思令的酒桶中陳釀，雖不是雷 思令卻有近似這葡萄酒乾身明亮的精妙口感。 Originally brewed for farm workers in Belgium and northern France, it is a refreshing and versatile style of beer with notes of white pepper, pome fruits and a delicate acidity.

This dry bright saison was aged in Riesling barrels with a unique yeast culture. It is not unlike a classic Riesling wine, featuring flavours reminiscent of lime, petrol and dry earth.

Raspberry Lemon Sourweisse (5.2% ABV | 16 IBU) Mango Party Cream Ale (5.2% ABV | 22 IBU) Faculty Brewing (on the Vancouver - Brewery Creek Ale Trail) 兩款新口味啤酒：Mango Party Cream Ale是與Wize Coffee Leaf合作，將口感細 滑的啤酒注入Wize的Mango Party茶，並融合Mandarina Bavaria啤酒花的柑橘 味；粉紅色的Raspberry Lemon Sourweisse帶酸味，添加了紅莓和檸檬，果味濃 郁。 A kettle sour wheat ale with added raspberry and lemon.

MyTH Myth的靈感源自其前身UNIQ Hospitality Group的 Myth on Danforth，這家旗艦店於1994年開業時，與當時 Danforth附近小酒館式的希臘餐廳相比，被認為是走在潮 流之先的餐廳；現在於King的新址，其實是第二代將父 母當年的餐廳再現，融合了美食、文化、氛圍和慶典於一 身。 位於King街現址的Myth，用了7個月時間將前身歷史 悠久的E.C. Gurney & Co. Stove Foundry建築物，打造成 面積達5千平方呎、仿如希臘愛琴海Mykonos和Cyclades 的小島風情。寬敞的場地內是度身定造的木製品、藝術品 和裝飾；室內可容納多達150人，露台則可招待60人。 以清新和充滿變化的地中海風味見稱，Myth的希臘 美食菜單偏向於傳統的愛琴海風味，並著重於新鮮的海 鮮。在行政總廚Sergio Abrunho和Tulio Lessa的帶領下， 餐廳傳達了希臘喜歡集體用餐的特色，這亦展示在他們的 餐桌上︰除了適合分享的開胃菜，開放式廚房的菜餚還包 括那些融合了從希臘進口食材的菜餚，包括鱸魚、以來自 Santorini的豆蓉來伴烤八爪魚、以Kefalograviera芝士炮 製充滿戲劇效果的火焰芝士、鹽焗魚和paidakia（羊扒）。 愛喝酒的話，這裡有以希臘神話和奧林匹斯山上諸神 為靈感的雞尾酒，以希臘酒品如Metaxa、Ouzo和Mastiha 調製。酒類選擇還包括多款寄售葡萄酒、來自希臘和其它 地中海地區的佳品。

A convergence of food, culture, ambiance and celebration, Myth takes inspiration from its predecessor, UNIQ Hospitality Group’s Myth on Danforth. Opened in 1994, the flagship was considered ahead of its time in contrast to its contemporaries that were largely tavern-style Greek restaurants.

For the location on King St. W., it took seven months to transform the historic former E.C. Gurney & Co. Stove Foundry building into a 5,000-square-foot scene from the seaside of Mykonos and the Cyclades Islands. The spacious venue is lined with custom woodwork and commissioned artwork, and is outfitted at full capacity to seat 150 inside and 60 on its terrazas.

Showcasing the fresh and vibrant flavours of the Mediterranean, Myth’s modern Greek menu is fresh and flavourful, skewing towards traditional Aegean flavours with a heavy emphasis on fresh seafood. Led by executive chefs Sergio Abrunho and Tulio Lessa, the culinary program channels the group-style dining characteristic of the region, which is evident in their table-filling dishes.

In addition to share-friendly meze, the open kitchen’s dishes include those that incorporate ingredients imported from Greece, including sea bass, fava from Santorini that’s made into a puree that sides grilled octopus and Kefalograviera cheese that’s set aflame in the theatrical Saganaki appetizer. There’s also salt baked fish and paidakia (lamb chops).

Cocktails are inspired by Greek mythology and made using Greek products, including liqueurs such as Metaxa, Ouzo and Mastiha. Oenophiles will be pleased to learn that the list is made up of consignment wines and is stocked with an eclectic collection of Greek vintages and is rounded out by other Mediterranean options.

Drawing crowds to midtown, this temple of food partners two Toronto stalwarts—Cumbrae’s Stephen Alexander and Cosimo Mammoliti, best known for owning Terroni’s family of restaurants and Sud Forno. While they opened the culinary mecca’s gourmet grocer, Stock T.C., last year, the entire project was completed when they launched Stock Bar, a three-storey restaurant and patio dining extravaganza early this summer.

Spread out over three floors of the revamped Postal Station K in the yonge-Eglinton neighbourhood, each space has its own dramatic qualities in the build and design. The Tavern, for instance, has fun accents that pay homage to the building’s past, such as deckle-edged floors that are a nod to postage stamps, letterbox slots in the walls, plus bespoke lampshades imprinted with the patterns found on security envelopes.

Vibrant and spacious, the expansive Ground Floor Terrace caters up to 100 guests. The long patio, accessed off yonge Street, is surrounded by greenery. It has its own bar and is open for lunch and dinner.

From the main entrance, guests enter the grocery and walk up a central staircase to their plush and lush second-floor Tavern Room, or third-floor Montgomery Room or Rooftop Garden Patio. Off the Helendale Avenue entrance, you’ll find a set of elevators that can take you to all three dining spaces.

Filled with custom-made furnishings, all by local producers, the second floor’s Tavern Room embodies the feel of classic American bistros, with a view of the open kitchen. Besides old French-style cast brass countertops that are faced with creamy green Connemara Marble, there are plush leather-lined booths surrounding a gleaming central bar where there’s high-top seating for smaller parties.

位於三樓的Montgomery Room擁有新建的玻璃屋頂， 開揚明亮，設有組式座椅，亦可舉行最多容納100人的私人活 動。令人驚嘆的桃木天花板，模仿曲折的花園格架；華麗的U 形酒吧，由明亮的玫瑰圓頂、帆布椅子和棕色瓷磚照亮，並通 往Rooftop Garden部分。 Rooftop Garden的露天用餐區既可在天氣狀況容許下作 Montgomery Room的延伸，亦可用於私人活動，容納多達100 位客人。這裡除了是從Eglington走廊飽覽城市美景的好地方， 亦可同時欣賞酒吧經理Niko Conti調製雞尾酒的功架，這些雞 尾酒的靈感來自世界地，而且不那麼甜。 有美食界響噹噹名字Cumbrae's和Terroni加持，食物的 水準和廚藝自然不在話下。現有菜單可說是集美式意大利小酒 館如Alexander、Mammoliti with Pasquini和Ward的大成，都 是豐儉由人，適合分享的菜餚，例如是炸魷魚圈、全隻烤雞、 Terroni的經典蘑菇沙拉、環保的養殖牛扒、手工製作的意大利 麵食和薄餅……所選用的優質食材均來自同集團在地面那層的 Stock TC。周末還提供早午餐，菜式包括炒蛋伴新鮮即刨黑松 露、牛油果多士和自家製白肉腸伴蔬菜等。 侍酒師兼葡萄酒總監Drew Innes為餐廳設計了以價值主導 的非一般酒單，以小型生產商為主，當中來自意大利小酒莊的 便是集團專門為餐廳引進。假如食客在餐廳嚐過並喜歡，還可 以到樓下的食品超市選購。品酒愛好者往往有驚喜體會，就像 在訪問時，才發現Alsatian pinot gris原來跟牛扒是絕妙配搭。

Besides a semi-private dining room, the floor is also home to an eye-catching Mexican tile mosaic of a pink sunset over the Canadian Shield’s islands and forests. The commissioned piece runs the length of the west wall and took a local artist four months to complete.

置身Rooftop Garden露台，城市美景一覽無遺。 The Rooftop Garden Patio offers a panoramic view of the city from its Yonge-Eglinton location.

Housed in a new glass-enclosed rooftop structure on the third floor, the Montgomery Room is light and airy, and has modular seating that allows it to also function as a private event space for up to 100 people. The fully accessible room is outfitted with a stunning mahogany ceiling that’s designed to mimic a zig-zagging garden trellis, a gorgeous U-shaped bar that’s lit by a luminous rose dome, canvas chairs and brown quarry tiles, and walks out to the Rooftop Garden.

Available for private events and as an add-on to the Montgomery Room, the Rooftop Garden Patio can cater to up to 100 guests and offers a panoramic view of the city. you might see bar manager Niko Conti shaking and stirring custom cocktails inspired by international destinations.

When it comes to food, there’s no holding back in quality and craftsmanship when industry stalwarts Cumbrae’s and Terroni come together. The American-Italian bistro fare found on the extensive menu is a collaboration between Alexander, Mammoliti with Pasquini and Ward, and features approachable, share-friendly dishes ranging from calamari fritti to whole rotisserie chicken. There’s also Terroni’s classic funghi assoluti salad, hand-crafted pastas and pizza, and sustainable farmed steaks, all using the same premium ingredients found in their ground-floor grocery. There’s weekend brunch with dishes such as soft scrambled eggs with freshly shaved black truffle, avocado toast and house-made boudin blanc with vegetables.

龍蝦和蝦肉包。 Lobster and shrimp roll stuffs a toasted pain brioche with a generous filling made of the poached crustaceans, mayo, lemon, chili, tomato and chives.

Sommelier and Wine Director Drew Innes has chosen a value-driven and unconventional wine list that showcases predominantly smaller producers, including those from Italy, which the group imports exclusively for the space. He has created a unique program, where guests who’ve enjoyed their restaurant wine experience can then pick up a bottle with a similar profile downstairs at Stock TC. Oenophiles will likely encounter revelatory experiences, where on one visit an unlikely pairing of an Alsatian pinot gris was a superb match to steak frites.

The Dalmore Decades, a one-of-a-kind selection of exceptional whiskies, tells the story of The Dalmore’s relentless pursuit of excellence over the years. It spans six decades, from one of the oldest liquors released by The Dalmore to the first Scotch created in the new millennium.

A pioneer in the art of cask curation, master distiller Richard Paterson has been on a mission over the last 50 years to push the boundaries of whisky production. The Dalmore Decades is Paterson’s personal selection and a culmination of his custody of the rare casks the distillery enjoys.

“Over the past 50 years, I have kept a watchful eye over our superlative inventory of rare whiskies, giving them the guidance to mature and reach their full potential in the finest casks sourced from around the world,” says proud distiller Paterson. “Each bottle marks a very special milestone in the brand’s history and has a unique story to tell, which I hope the lucky collector will enjoy with those closest to them.”

作為品牌秋季拍賣系列的一部分，擁有6瓶不同年份威士忌的 Dalmore Decades珍藏系列中的No.6系列將於10月在香港舉行的 蘇富比拍賣會拍賣。拍賣所得的相當部分將捐贈給V&A Dundee、 蘇格蘭設計博物館及在倫敦以外的首家Victoria and Albert博物館。

A significant percentage of the monies received will be donated to V&A Dundee, Scotland’s design museum and the first Victoria and Albert museum outside of London.

The Dalmore亦會發佈15套No.5系列，當中5瓶分別來自 1967年、1979年、1980年、1995年和2000年的威士忌，是過去 50年深具代表性的佳釀。

The Dalmore will also release 15 sets of the No. 5 Collection, containing five masterpiece whiskies representing each of the past five decades (1967, 1979, 1980, 1995, 2000).

They will be sold exclusively through the finest retailers in the world, including Harrods (UK), Wally’s (US), Le Bon Marché (FR) and CDFG Hainan, with a suggested retail price of £200,000.

此外，還有25套令人垂涎的No.4系列，每套都包含4瓶分別 來自1979年、1980年、1995年和2000年份的威士忌。跟No.5系 列一樣，每個酒瓶均刻有專屬的套裝編號，並配有黑色項圈和瓶 塞。同時，每套No.4系列將陳列在特製的展示台上，每個酒瓶各 有單獨間隔盛放，並將其獨特故事刻在其上。

The Dalmore Decades 1951 Royal Heritage

The Dalmore Decades 1967 Expertly Composed Spirit

The Dalmore Decades 1979 Curating Exquisite Casks

Dalmore 60年的單一麥芽威士忌使用了於1951年 蒸餾的兩桶孿生威士忌，是麥肯錫年代留下來的最 後原酒。琥珀色澤的酒液散發雪莉桶的香氣，及黑 糖漿、薑和可可粉的味道。

這款53年的單一麥芽威士忌誕生於1967年，亦即 是如今蒸餾室誕生的一年，具有里程碑意義。它有 紅橘、濃郁磨碎咖啡和麝香葡萄般複雜和有層次感 的香氣和口感。

With this 60-year-old single malt, matured in twin sherry casks, one can expect to find whispers of black treacle, ginger and cocoa powder. It is one of the oldest whiskies ever released by The Dalmore and is the last one distilled during the Mackenzie era, founders of the distillery.

This is a 53-year-old single malt laid down in 1967—a landmark year in which the stillhouse as it stands today was created. It provides complex but intriguing layers of clementine, tangy ground coffee and muscovado.

Dalmore 40年單一麥芽威士忌源自美國白橡木波本 桶，2008年將珍貴原酒轉置至有30年歷史、來自 GonzalesByass的Matusalem Oloroso頂級雪莉酒 桶，在此珍稀的雪莉酒桶內熟成7年後，再將原酒 轉換至初次波本桶中醞釀，直至2017年裝瓶面世。 擁有濃郁的香甜葡萄乾、烤開心果、楓樹糖漿、菠 蘿和椰棗的香氣和餘韻。

This 40-year-old single malt is a tribute to the longstanding relationship between Spanish sherry bodega González Byass and The Dalmore. It has enjoyed maturation in a particularly fine Matusalem Oloroso sherry butt before a final maturation in a Graham’s Port Vintage 1952—one of port’s rarest vintages.

The resulting whisky is exuberant sultanas and toasted pistachios, finishing in notes of maple syrup, pineapple and succulent dates.

The Dalmore Decades 1980 Unbroken Chain of Visionaries

The Dalmore Decades 2000 Into the New Millennium

殿堂級調酒大師Richard Paterson於1980年加盟 The Dalmore，而這瓶40年的單一麥芽威士忌採用 了品牌傳統熟成方式並將其逆轉—原酒從波旁酒桶 轉移到Matusalem雪利酒桶，然後在裝瓶前再將原 酒置入最初的波旁酒桶等待超過5年。它擁有淡淡 的，包括苦巧克力、杏仁糖和可可粉的層次韻味。

上世紀90年代迎來了The Dalmore標誌性的簡約鐘 形酒瓶的誕生，蜿蜒的曲線呼應了蒸餾器的外型。 The Dalmore Decades1995的原酒在之前釀製波本 酒桶中熟成，並在Tintilla de Rota葡萄的波特酒桶 完成；交織出紅色漿果、桃駁梨、杏仁餡餅和胡桃 派的獨特韻味。

它誕生於2000年1月1日凌晨12點02分，當時世 界正在慶祝新千禧時代的到來。這款威士忌在 Matusalem Oloroso雪利酒桶中度過了20年歲月， 跟品牌的釀酒做法有異，卻另有一番味道—罕見的 酒漬櫻桃和苦巧克力味道充滿味蕾，然後是仿若洋 甘草和蘋果批的餘韻。

The 1980s marked the arrival of master blender Richard Paterson at The Dalmore. This 40-yearold single malt takes the traditional maturation of The Dalmore and reverses it: the whisky moves from bourbon casks into Matusalem sherry butts, then spends more than five years back in first-fill ex-bourbon casks before bottling. Its single malt layers include a gentle whisper of bitter chocolate, marzipan and cocoa powder.

The ’90s welcomed the creation of The Dalmore’s iconic minimalist bell-shaped bottle, its sinuous curves echoing the voluptuous shape of the stills. It is matured in ex-bourbon casks and finished in spectacular Tintilla de Rota port pipes, offering a burst of red berries, glazed nectarines, frangipane and moist pecan pie on the palate, building to a triumphal finish.

It was born at 12:02 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2000, as the world celebrated the dawn of a new age.

The final whisky of The Dalmore Decades has spent all 20 years of its life in a Matusalem Oloroso sherry butt, a radical departure from the distillery’s practice. Rare black maraschino cherry and bitter chocolate drench the palate, and a final kiss of licorice and tarte tatin ebbs slowly in the background.

恃機行「兇」

Unleashing the Power the Ultimate asUs Phone 5 may just be the world's most advanced gaming smartphone Story | 陳旭英 早前推出的ASUS新一代旗艦電競手機ROG Phone 5，現今頂配版 本Ultimate版更有獨特的背屏賣點，以超強效能成為新世代電競神機。 ASUS ROG Phone 5 Ultimate同之前ROG Phone 5比較，設計大 同小異，機背則完全不同，並未使用帶有RGB燈效及ROG Logo的Dot Matrix設計，而是塞入了一個稱之為後置幻視屏幕的小型LED屏幕。另 外，此版本的「極光白」配色機背是霧面效果，觀感截然不同。或許因 加入了小型LED屏幕，重量加重了2克，實際上手感覺差異不大。 Ultimate的後置幻視屏幕是個注目點，此屏幕真正可按照使用者 喜好去顯示內容。本身後置LED屏幕已針對7個不同情境可顯示出3種 不同動畫，手機會自動偵測並播放。使用者也可自行設定字句顯示， 甚至是將相片放到後置LED屏幕播放。

The ultra-powerful Ultimate ASUS Phone 5 afforded Republic of Gamers (ROG) the opportunity to stage a live all-star competition, pitting the world’s leading gaming influencers against one another.

Instead of having the same dot matrix design with RGB effects and ROG logo at the rear side, this Ultimate version includes a mini “phantom” LED screen with higher contrast and brighter colours. With the new matte aurora white body colour, the look and feel is completely different compared with prior models. Although the LED screen contributes an extra two grams in weight, it doesn’t have much of an affect in terms of handling.

Years ago, I was out with my wife and son and we decided to stop in at a Starbucks. As we parked up the street, a 2010 Audi R8 Spyder V10 pulled up in front of the store. Since the R8 is a snazzy car, even now, we were curious to see who was behind the wheel.

We watched as a guy, who had to be 90 and needed two canes to maintain his balance, managed to get out of the car and stand up straight.

因此，當可以試駕2021年款的中置引擎雪佛蘭Corvette Stingray 時，我馬上抓緊這個機會。我要告訴兒子和太太，他們的想法都錯了， 因為我不是年輕人，而擁有這款起價為67,898元的轎跑車，或是76,898 元起的開篷跑車的人士，也不一定要上年紀和有錢。 取得這跑車後，我有一個絕妙的想法：做一個馬路和賽道的試駕車 評。我會做馬路的部分，而我的朋友—加拿大著名車手Ron Fellows則會 在賽道上測試。 我開着這車在所住的密西沙加市行駛，然後上401公路。我不得不 說，從各個方面來看，這車都是瑰寶，讓人喜愛。它的外觀帥氣有型， 內裡同樣誘人。駕駛艙的設計緊湊和高效，你會感覺到就像坐在戰鬥 機內。 中置的6.2公升自然進氣小型V8引擎，可迸發出495匹馬力和輸出 470磅/呎扭力，而八速自動變速箱從0加速至時速97公里不用3秒，極速 則可超過時速300公里。 Ron Fellows曾經駕駛Corvettes贏過法國勒芒24小時耐力賽、佛羅 裡達州戴通納24小時耐力賽和錫布靈12小時耐力賽等多項賽事。若說瞭 解Corvettes，無人能及他了。

“Only young guys should own a car like that,” said my son.

“Only old guys can afford them,” said my wife.

So, you can understand why I jumped at the chance to test out the 2021 Mid-Engine Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. Both my son and wife were wrong. I’m not a young guy and I don’t have to be old and rich to own this ‘Vette, which starts at $67,898 (the coupe) or $76,898 (the convertible).

When I got the car, I had the brilliant idea: why not do a “road” and “track” review? I would do the road part and my friend Ron Fellows would test it on the track.

I drove the car around Mississauga, where I live, and out on the 401. I have to say right off that it is a gem in every sense. The exterior is gorgeous and the interior is equally attractive. The driver’s cockpit is close-knit and efficient and you feel like you’re sitting in a fighter jet.

The 6.2-litre, normally aspirated, small-block V8, which is mounted mid-ships, churns out 495 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission can take it from zero to 97 km/h in three seconds, and top out at more than 300 km/h.

我們於7月初到安省Bowmanville以北的Canadian Tire Motorsport Park賽車場試車。Ron Fellows在賽道上駕駛了45分鐘，對這輛跑車愛 不釋手。 Q：與其它跑車比較如何？ A：一般來說，所有跑車都非常好，不過很多人會以價值作比 較，而論性價比，就要選Corvette了，因為這款車的表現遠高於價格。 Q：這是最好的Corvette嗎？如果是的話，是什麽令它最好？ A：Corvette把採用了60多年的前置引擎改為中置引擎，並於兩 年前面世。通用汽車的前置引擎設計已經盡可能做到最好了。把引擎 置中，讓跑車的平衡整體上更好，能讓重心盡可能地居中，使車輛更 加穩定，可以用較高的速度入彎。 Q：基本上這是一輛可以在馬路上行駛的賽車，對嗎？ A：Corvettes在賽道上的表現一直非常好，同時也迎合了想一起 旅行的情侶的需要。這款中置引擎跑車盛載行李的空間之大，超出了 你的想象，這也是它與別不同之處。

But enough from me. Ron Fellows has driven Corvettes to victory in the 24 Hours of Daytona, class victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 12 Hours of Sebring, and so many other victories in so many other series. If anyone knows Corvettes, it’s Ron Fellows.

We made it onto the track at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park north of Bowmanville, Ont., in early July and lapped the course for 45 minutes. He loves the new car.

Q: How does this car really stack up?

A: Generally speaking, all sports cars are very good. But for many people, it comes down to the value proposition, which has always been the case with the Corvette. They’ve all performed way above their price range.

Q: Is this the best Corvette and, if so, what makes it the best?

A: It’s a departure from over 60 years of front engines. But it’s been in the works for a while. GM had maxed out just about everything it could with the front engine. One of the things I’ve noticed about the mid-engine configuration is, because the balance of the car with the mid-engine is better overall, you can carry more entry speed into a corner. The platform is just that much more stable with the midengine.

Q: This is essentially a race car we can drive on the street, right?

A: Well, the Corvettes have always performed really well on the track, but they have also catered to couples who want to go on road trips together. For a mid-engine car, there’s lots more luggage space than you might expect. That was part of the criteria.
