Some of our Portuguese booty. We are drinking the 10yr old Niepoort tawny at the moment, which I neglected to add to the photo. The cherry liquor on the right is the original which sells for about $10 and has a couple of dozen cherries at the bottom. When we get to that point we'll be having them with some good vanilla ice cream. We tried a couple of the more 'up scale' cherry liquors and the original blows them away.

Sandeman 10yr Port
Dinner at the Red Room in Ventnor last night was excellent. House-made pasta and bread. We all agreed that both were the equal of anything we've had in the southern half of NJ. Equal to the good food & service were the wine & port (we prefer BYOB). A most excellent Saint-Émilion and southern Côte du Rhône as well as a 'good' Haut Medoc and very average Medoc. Aw, well.......... we got what we paid for. To top the evening we had a 10yr old Sandeman port. Was 500ml bottle and we did it some damage. We will be gathering for New Year's eve and have agreed that we'll step up to a 20yr or 30yr bottle of same and maybe cut back bit on the champagne for that meal (rib roast & lobstor). Happy New Years, all.

After a glass of Laphroaig, this is an even finer malt:
I don't like to spend a fortune on whisky, and for about 40€ a bottle, this is a bargain!

Nice. Local grocery store was raffling off a few bottles. I wasn’t one of the lucky. Enjoy! |

Colleagues, I shall be enjoying Columbia Crest HHH ( Horse Heaven Hills ) Cab.
We are fortunate here in the Peoples Democratic Republic of Washington of having some darn good beer, wine and spirits. Pretronius Hail Audio! |

Indeed.......... we cab drinkers have been living in good times. Not a bad vintage this century from pretty much anywhere (France, USA, SA, Australia, etc.). Obviously, some better than others, but all better than good.
