are we also coffee connoisseurs? Or wine enthusiasts?


I was thinking when I made my espresso this morning.

But maybe enjoying music (and passionately committing to the rituals and the environment conducive to enjoying music) has more to do with wine? Scotch? Cognac?

or do you ears work best when....?

Cannabis enthusiast here! Never liked the taste of coffee and am not drinking alcohol these days, 'cause beers I like (British cask-conditioned real ales) are too hard to come by.... 

I love coffee, but love wine even more.  You'd think I'd have a stake in Kirkland wine, but I don't.

@grislybutter That Hungarian would be Agoston Haraszthy who brought cuttings from European vineyards in the 1850s and 60s and considered one of the founders of the CA wine industry. Also Hungarian wine was improved immeasurably by the fall of the Iron Curtain and Western investment in it's vineyards.

@jond, yes, also the first Sheriff of San Diego

Unfortunately 80% of Hungarian wine (<$2) is still junk though

I heard about him at a wine tasting. HIs name wasn't mentioned but the story is the same. Some of those wine trunks have very deep roots and easily accommodate cuttings and grafting. 

All the best,
