Good Booze Heads up?

Possibly the best vodka there is

Just remember do NOT buy the gold edition. It's shit but basic and Platinum is good!

What comes to rum my personal favorite is Metusalem. Really difficult to find from Finland though.

and you shouldn't take this one lightly either. Don't be fooled by the name. It is actually really good if you like rums.

I'll get back to wines when I'm back home and can go through my stash Smile

ez-1... seriously? russian standard?.. not had it yet but just looks like a posh smirnoff.
Have you had chase vodka, Grey Goose or Kroleska? all 3 are quality, Belvedere aint too shabby either
Finlandia is excellent if your on a budget, or drinking it with mixers, best in price range for sure

Grey goose is ok but no match for Standard. It might look like posh Smirnoff but is something completely different.
There's not that many vodkas that I like to drink pocket warm but this one you can. It's like drinking water but makes you more attractive to the ladies. Also makes you invincible and very rich Wink

A wise move. I gave Lady SS a couple of those and 30 mins later I was holding her hair out the way and trying my hardest not to laugh whilst she chucked her ring up goodstyle. Laughing

mmm nice.
I liked the havana 15 year old, only had the once and cost my mate 12 pound a shot....
much cheaper was a nice bottle of angostura 8 year old which was very smooth for the price of 20 quid.

Just tried the Appleton 12yo and I have to admit it's very good. They also have 21yo but that was €14/4cl so I skipped that.
I'm not saying that Metusalem is better but it's very good in a different way (not Bacardi kind at all). It tastes like a Cognac or Whiskey but still a bit different.
Well I tried some other liqueurs tonight as well... Raspberry liqueur, Licor 43 (excellent with blueberry juice and cream), bloody marry, a few beers, maybe something else and something else... Very Happy
