i occasionally spike my coffee with some sambuca, either romana or marie brizard variety.

i used to often have an ounce or two of wine with dinner, but i have hence cut down drastically in the frequency of this. the type of wine was dependent on the food, of course, but my favorite wine is Pinot Grigio.

My aversion to alcohol makes me useful as a designated driver. I prefer it that way.

Hey! I hear that... caipirinha is just great! You just have to take care with it, cause it's very sweet so you can barely feel the strong taste of cachaça... so you start drinking and after 2 or 3 you realize how fucking drunk you are...

Not too long ago I was in Spain. Drove from Madrid and Toledo down to Granada and I can say I experienced some of THE BEST wine I ever tasted along the way! (Part of my heritage is Italian so I was raised around wine) I really must try the Málaga you speak of. Is it like a Port or Madeira?

I can´t tell you a proper answer as I am not an expert in wines, but there are some categories here in Málaga. I recommend you: Málaga Virgen/ Pedro Ximenez ( experts say it´s not the same wine , really similar but not the same) and also Vino de Pasas (dried grapes) which it simply wonderful. Ah, be careful. It´s really sweet and you can drink litres of it, and suddenly you can fall out of the chair!

Thanks for the advise gon!

Hope you will enjoy it. Also it is a good wine to have with desserts. With some cheese is excellent.
