i marked all because i love all of them as long as they are good quality.

but if i had to pick one to take say to a desert island it would be red wine, something like a cabernet or pinot noir, which i drink daily in small amounts and occassionally in very large ones.

my favorite cheap red one currently is smoking loon-- a lot of pleasure for a $7 bottle. up in the heavens is of course the glorious chateauneuf du pape which i don't get to consume very often.

i recently tried my first organic wine and though it was a bit light for a cabernet it was quite good and of course the whole bottle was promptly downed.

anyway, for hard liquor my favorite is gin, bombay sapphire at the top of the list, followed by scotch whiskey (there are many, blends and single malts, i have good memories of glenfiddich and talisker for each kind), and then a good vodka (i tend to favor stoli); a well-made tequila like herradura gold is always a beautiful thing, and a nice nice rum (tanduay? definitely not bacardi) is perfect to spike eggnogg and make desserts. excellent rums are great to drink on the rocks but they are rare and pricey and hard to find. i love also bourbon, and there is a battle in my mind between wild turkey and maker's mark-- i know there are better ones but they reside in a land beyond my budget.

and that is that. and i gotta go. have fun everyone & enjoy your booze.
