So I looked in the back of the cupboard (the top cupboard of a wardrobe) and those holiday memories came flooding back!!! The old days, when you could bring back a bottle of spirits/liqueur and ?6 bottles of wine duty-free. It was a good excuse for 3 holidays every year.
I found Bacardi from the Bacardi factory in Puerto Rico, Gin bought to make sloe gin, 7 Star Metaxa Brandy (Greece), some Fruity liqueurs from Turkey, Marsala and 3 bottles of Strega (Italy), Jim Bean whisky (USA), Port from Portugal, Madeira from bet you can't guess; and from goodness knows where - Tequila, Vodka, Tia Maria, Jaegermeister, Isle of Jura single malt, 3 bottles of various sherries, Ginger Liqueur and more that I can't remember.
Now I have a decluttering plan - to drink it in 2021..............and not buy anymore wine until its finished.
Not as easy as it sounds as I don't like most spirits and will need to dilute them all with lemonade or ginger ale. Still, its a small sacrifice to make for an empty cupboard!!!
There was also bottle of Ginger Ale - Best before April '06........the bad news is - it was flat.
