You are forgetting the 100% or so tax on alcohol in Norway.

Yep, it's one of the most popular ones. Not exactly top class, but not bad either.

The company is well known for their xmas commercials. This year they hired Pierce Brosnan... dumb ad, anyway

Well, although I'm saddened to see the loss of another 'real' drinker, I do wish you the best in your new 'sipping' life, and want u to know that , although we drinkers will miss u greatly, we do wish u the best.

Concidering that I just woke up from a party that lasted until mid-sunday I feel kinda.....tired still. That champagne testing with some cognac and GT to break up the bubbley with 2 of my friends lasted longer than I had expected. Sertainly longer than our "wives" enjoyed

Oh well... these partys are so far apart now..... and I remember why too.

My wife and I had Dom for our anniversery. I must say , that it was GREAT. Understand it is expensive , but it was good stuff

Champagne is what happen to a wine you an't really drink as is...

Did you guessed I hate Champagne ?

Btw you can be wrong with a Veuve Cliquot a Mumm a Moët et Chandon.

Beetle the grand cru are supposed to produce be the best grape at 100% the premier cru are between 90% and 99% of a 100% scale.
