Sherri Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 I'm too wimpy of a drinker to have a shot at becoming a whiskey connoisseur, but I had the fortune of being introduced to the fine art of port consumption while I lived in Australia. It was a three-part process, as I remember. Take a sip of port(a Rutherglen tawny is a nice choice), followed by a sip of hot coffee, and then a nibble of a Cadbury chocolate bar. Smooth, hot, and sweet...all the way down. Good times. there's nothing better than sugar, fat, caffeine, and alcohol Not to mention you get 4 food groups covered in one go. Quote

mattp Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 I've got some Upmanns that are pretty good at about a fifth the price of those Cohiba's. These are blond wrapped, while I prefer maduro, but not bad never-the-less. Maybe we should have a smoke break at tomorrow night's Sausage Fest. Smokes go with sausage. Quote
mattp Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 I'm a little ahead of myself. You are correct: it is next week. More than one of my Upmanns may have caught fire by then ... is scotch on the rock a good substance for putting out small housefires? Quote
