i sometimes think along similar lines, and while i like
veuve clicquot, i realise that a similar amount can buy
you a very nice bottle of single malt or brandy
on the subject of brandy, its having a resurrgence in
the mccarroll household (frightningly since i am now married
it is probably now the mccarroll household), most recently
i particularly enjoyed a bottle of
Leopold Carrere Armagnac 1981
i've got the (empty) bottle in front of me now to remind me to
get another soon
now, i must admit, i know next to nothing about brandy,
i know that calvados is apple/cider brandy and congnac is
champagne brandy, but thats about it
any tips would be appreciated,
greg
