      I travelled to Poland on a weekly basis in the mid/late 90s.  I would always bring back a bottle of Zubrowka…. The fact that it cost about $5 per litre then, had nothing to do with it...

        Thanks for the knowledge gents. Had no idea the Poles were top of the vodka tree. I may spread my wings at some point. Whisky, beer, gin and akevitt tend to keep my liver busy these days, and that is probably enough for now…

        Funny you say akevitt. Which means “water of life” roughly. And that was the original Name for whiskey and vodka and all spirits that were the first distilled. Alcohol history is pretty cool.

        Another nugget. All liquors are distilled from wine or beer.

        Maybe so. Maybe not

              Missing out on feeling like shit. Seriously… if I stick to beer, whisky and akevitt I’m fine. Throw a glass of wine or brandy into the mix and it gets messy.

                  It's also bullshit. The only rule is not to drink too much. Other than that you can basically mix anything and everything.

                  Scientifically proven.

                    A quick Google tells me the Belgian Beaut is right. I’m sticking with it though. It feels good.

                        Definitely. There's stuff I don't mix either.

                        Of course I am the boozehound that has at least a strong beer, a handful of glasses of wine and a wee whiskey every day…  😉

                          good night folks! Friend visit us at our cabin this week with this bottle of whisky. Fuck me! This one was really good! I’ve never enjoyed whisky taste before…really Tequila-Gin-Vodka boy!
                          But to taste this one...Bottle went empty surely and lovely in the night. A revelation for me[emoji51]
