Don't listen to him, guys! He sounds like a Chardonnay dude

After Armenian Brandy and Peruvian Pisco, Zubrowka is the drink closest to ambrosia (although Montenegran Loza and Romanian Tuika are not far behind....)
Gosh, I've been writing grant proposals far too long

I myself am a rakiya dude, but maybe you should tell everyone about an important ingredient in the Zubrowka (which I think gives it its name), and let them judge for themselves.

TVV,
I don't know what you were told

but Zubrowka is made with an extract from Bison grass (whatever other bison related liquids or solids you were told about are drefinitely not present in this fine beverage).
I like it best with apple juice...

TVV,
A rakia dude?
Bulgarian rakia? Plodova or grozdova? Man, I am so sorry for the the "Chardonnay" slur

As to Zubrowka, please look at this:

Bulgarian, yes, and I prefer grozdova. As for the Zubrowka, now that I have both Ariel's and Perkun's reassurances about certain Bison liquids not present in it, I guess I might consider trying it one day. I guess I was really naive to believe in that myth, shame on me

. And I appologize if I have hijacked the threath, but it was probably worth it, if others had the same doubts and fears.

Well, guys, sorry to tell you the sad truth, but among all, Briniewitz is the choice for a real connoiseur...

Thanks a lot for the pictures. Those are some beautiful armors and clubs.
