Seat68 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 My wife always used to get a case of fairly good spirits from contractors basically she was responsible for awarding them contracts. She moved jobs about a year ago and now can only appoint contractors on the NHS preferred supplier list, the booze givers are not on that list and my wife cant put them on that list. A box of spirits arrived yesterday from them anyway, a tier or two below the usual quality but still not bad, a bottle of woodford reserve and a bottle of smokehead whiskey for me.

mjmooney Posted December 23, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) Weird things that I only drink at Christmas, #1: ginger wine. My parents always used to get an annual bottle of Stones' Ginger Wine, so it's a nostalgia thing. Last Xmas I bought the Morrisons generic version by mistake (very similar labelling) - I noticed yesterday it was nearly all gone, so I bought a bottle of the real thing. Just did an A-B tasting test, and concluded that the supermarket version is nicer. Edited December 23, 2023 by mjmooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted December 23, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 23, 2023 Sipping away at this (bought for me earlier in the year for my 40th). Still some left, whether or not the bottle lives to see 2024 remains to be seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See I like moretti because it's got a slightly different taste to it Madri might as well be San Miguel rebranding Also surprised estrella galicia never came for the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 The nice beer shop had been ransacked, but there was still plenty to please. 3 or 4 to keep, the rest are gifts 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
