Just Trying Drambuie

[joggerjayne]

It's REALLY nice!

[MarkRae]

Puts me in mind of the scene from The Great Escape where they're sampling the home-brewed hooch. Various inmates of various nationalities sample it and dissolve into paroxysms of coughing and spluttering, but Gordon Jackson has a guid swallee and says "Rather good"... :-)

"This is very drinkable"

The most dangerous words known to man, or woman.

[Duncer]

Are you perhaps suggedsting that the Scots are jakeballs Mark?

[Psybbo]

the strange thing was, people drinking poteen with milk?

[NoMercy]

Have you tried Glayva, seagull?

[Duncer]

Perhaps the only drink that makes me want to vomit before I drink it?

[Duncer]

Poteen with milk, not Glayva.

[douglas9401]

Mr Crosswordfan, I think you're confusing Irish Mist with Baileys.

[tommy-h]

My absolut favourite glayva.Try with a half measure of cheap scotch just to cut the sweetness.Beware though it`s so nice over ice it`s bluddy lethal.

My Grandmother in law lived in the country and could make wine from anything that grew. I went to see her and she showed me her cellar. Racks and racks of wine. Everything from carrot, turnip, dandelion etc. She asked me which I would like to taste I chose carrot. When she pulled it from the rack it was dated 1946. This was in 1975. The taste was lovely but after one glass I couldn't drive home. I would love to know what happened to all that wine and jam after she died.

[Duncer]

Perhaps they embalmed her in it?

[Georgiesmum]

I think i will stick to my Sheridans.anyone else like it?

[Duncer]

One or two, any more is sickening.

I well remember an elderly relative referring to drambuie as damn brewery :)

[paddywak]

Drambuie's ok, once you've got rid of the crap they've put in the whisky

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

Drambuie is yummy, as is Sheridan's, Baileys and Tia Maria.
I love all of them in coffee especially.

[joggerjayne]

Just reading the label.

So it's like whisky with a bunch of herbal stuff?

[Caran]

What about Amaretti? I love it.
