    hi i am new here that last lessonwas great, in a relative theme i want to ask you for the word “beer” :grin: i was wondering if you can tell me about it plese, a and another cuestion can you tell meaning of words in another lenguage ???? :?: thank you have a nice day :mrgreen:

  • tayljim

    I meant crude

    As they say, “candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker” :grin:

  • m.philos

    wow !
    what a lesson… I
    really love scene III *and* scene IV in your drama
    but the ‘chute’ ( I mean curtain fall, do you say ‘chute’ ? ) is the best !
    greatest Marina’s nonsense
    Who knows, may be you can outsmart Dr Evil at his game ?

    For toponyms, nearly every Wine ‘appellation’ here in France is after a name place : amongst the Bordeaux, you can enumerate forever village names like St Emilion, Pomerol, Pessac Leognan, Sauternes,
    same for the Bourgognes : Nuit St Georges, Gevrey-Chambertin, Meursault … it’s infinite…

    For Martini I would backup an italian commenter on youtube who insists it’s italian, that said, may be Ian Fleming’s Martini is not the Martini we drink here…

  • lostforwords

    I love it–so funny! First you spill it on your “gorge” as they say in France–I love you kept that! Then you gargle it–I mean who gargles a martini? Only Marina could think of that! And then passing out. You are also back to nice light and a good angle again–that made me happy too.

    A toponymic drink name–well most wines have toponyms, so one quick example: Brunello di Montalcino (a nice expensive one), any Champagne which comes from…Champagne (duh!) but there are so many others. I could Burgundies (Château La Tour), Bordeaux mostly have names of their châteaux or village in which they are made; also the type such as Burgundy or Bordeaux is named after a region anyway; you go could go on and on–one Bordeaux: Château Mouton-Rothchild–the most famous and expensive; why not!

    Cocktails, there are tons too: Manhattan (obvious), Cuba Libre (obvious), I’ll think of more.

    What about Vodka, Marina. I am sure there must be local vodkas named after places, no?

    Why does the high-quality button not show up at first. It only manifest itself later…weird!

    mmmmmoooooooowwwwwwwaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!

    Marina, Marina, Marina–it’s “I be way too cool”, not ibway two cul, and certainly not “ibway”, which you said over and over: that had me on giggling on the floor! Crazy funny…..

    I think this clip may be your best yet. Really, you’ve got to be in the movies as a comedienne–that idea certainly doesn’t assume your not smart; you have to be super fast to be funny. Ever notice dummies have no sense of humor–”what did you say? I don’t get it…..”

    Homework:
    Another toponym named drink is a Manhattan.
    Bond preferred his drink shaken as it cools the drink more quickly and mixes the vermouth more thoroughly preventing an oily taste. :cool:

  • melikadothechacha

    Marina!!! no-way-you-did-that! :shock:

    guys? she’s makin’ FUN of me!! check it out:
    (doing my homework – twice!)
    http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=oUG0GjdoGHE&feature=related
    i see you did your eyes like this today!
    (no mistake in my observation – none!)
    Marvelous that you can, but please, don’t
    I was just responding to the whole celebrity
    lookalike thang – not implying you should
    change a thing! …even w/o makeup…
    …or first thing after wakeup! au natural…
    …what you’ve got is workin’ – nymphlike..

    That’s a “glam vid” of Blondie, usually
    Deb Harry had those “put away hard” eyes*.
    * a twist on “rode hard, put away wet”

    Did you know that gargling like that
    allows the alcohol to be absorped
    directly into the throat tissue, getting
    the alcohol into your bloodstream
    more directly? NOW you know why
    you fell out so quick – LOL!

    Homework time! Martini time, later..wink wink
    The whole James Bond martini myth is ass
    backwards. Ian Fleming made it clear 007
    liked his Martini stirred, not shaken, because
    shaking “bruises” the gin.

    Hal Wasson, manager of the Montgomery Inn
    Riverhouse in Cincinnati showed me the best
    dry, shaken martini method to please the 007
    wannabes. Pour 2 oz. dry sweet vermouth over
    ice in a shaker. Shake. Pour out remaining dry
    vermouth, and add your gin. Shake and pour.
    Too much vermouth blows, so this works perfect.

    toponym words? Harvey Wallbanger? …uhh :roll:
    let me get back to you on that…

  • foxbow15

    I gues Bloody mary aint a toponym, so how did that get it’s name? sounds kinda gruesom.

    Shaken martini’s leave less hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) behind than stirred. Or maybe you just like it colder?

    o btw, you forgot to take of the barcode:P

    That was great. You’r camera must be drunk also. At the end it left a little square two colored box on your cleavage. That was definitly a five star or better video. :wink: Wher’s your olive. No martini is good without the olive. :cool: :grin:

  • lostforwords

    What was your extra-credit question?

    “Why does secret agent Hotforwords want YOUR Martini shaken not stirred?” Drunk for sure.

    Because you want us to be drinking the same thing?

    But since you meant, “why does she want her martini shaken not stirred?” I’d answer because it just tastes better. Can’t think of a better reason. Couldn’t be so that you don’t want to get drunk…

    By the way, were they gin or vodka martinis?

I have always found JUXTAPOSITION to be a funny word for describing a comparison.

    ibway2cool – was it something like this? :mrgreen:

  • bobby217prez

    EXTRA: Because the word “shaken, not stirred” was use in James Bond films and he used the word ice-cold. Which means that its colder shaken than stirred. Plus he was not drink martini. He was drink vodka martini. Plus in the movie “Casino Royale”, he used the famous phase in the 1953 book as quote:
    “Just a moment. Three measures of Gordon’s, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it’s ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon-peel. Got it?”

  • http://www.zenithmaritime.com/ CaptainJack

    Oh I see a typo. She typed ‘Bond chick’ when she meant ‘Blond chick’. You know as in Blonds are more… Ok I won’t go there. I’ve insulted her intelligence enough today.

    Marina would make a fantastic Bond girl. Only problem is she would probably make Bond look stupid and steal the show.

  • seesixcm6

    I rate your video five stars, or five kisses! Don’t drink too much, because it’s not good for you. You can clean your throat by gargleing with alcohol. A mouthwash like “Scope” or “Lavoris” will do the same thing, but you can’t swallow them. I think you would be great if you were in the next James Bond movie!

    You should do a lesson on the word “d’oh,” the expression of agitation, annoyance, pain, etc. Was it invented by the writers of the Simpsons, first uttered by Jimmy Finlayson, or is there an earlier date of entry into the language? Thanks

    You know Blondie look very much like Marina. If is was just a still framed photo of Blondie I would believe it was Marina. Watch Blondie make facial moves gives it away that’s not Marina. Marina has a wider gamut of facial expressions.

    Now what Scotsman in his right mind (assuming there is such a thing) would drink JD when they have 15 year-old single malts like Pinch, the Glenfiddich, Laphroaig (spelling?) and other even better and more tasty Scotches being bottled just up the road? btw, Bob’s home town even has a drink named after it: Aberdeen Angus. I’ll have to investigate further to see what’s in it. Judging by some of Bob’s comments, I’ll bet it kicks ass.

    That’s Sarsaparilla (more of a soda pop). FYI, the Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, Bahamas, Barbados, and Bermuda drinks all had multiple drink names, I just used the ones I could readily recognize to cut down on all the boring repetition.

    Bonjour dear beauty,

    I’ve discovered you and your sublime videos some weeks ago. Too bad i have’nt heard about them before. Your videos are the only ones i watch regularly on you tube. They are entertaining visually and of course mentally.

    My request, the reason of my comment, is for the word “indeed”. I wanted to know if it’s originaly related to official papers of any kind. In french (I’m from Québec), the translation is “en effet” and also kind of relates to papers of some kind.

    Thanks in advance, Jtootch

    Apart from Scotch and all the wines that others have already mentioned, I can think of liqueurs like Chartreuse, Calvados, Danzig brandy and Curaçao, Spirits like Cognac and Armagnac and Jamaica rum, alcoholic Coffees like Irish and Caribbean Coffee, Mekong Whiskey from Thailand and Canadian Club.
    Don’t forget, too, that single malt Scotch Whiskeys are named after the Glen or Island where they are distilled.
    After further thought, how about waters like Vichy, Evian, Highland Spring.
    Now I’m getting into my stride – Bombay Gin, London Gin, Bristol Cream Sherry (is that a portmanteau toponym?), Port (from Oporto in Portugal), Floridagold Frozen Orange Juice.
    Now after some internet research I’ve found Stolichnaya Vodka (Named after Moscow, the Capital City. (столица=Capital))
    There’s even a vodka named after you, Marina, Wyborowa Vodka from Poland. (Wyborowa means exquisite in Polish)
    For cocktails there are Bronx, Cuba Libre, Jersey Lily, Manhattan, and Moscow Mule,

    Hey Mike, When I lived in Eastern Washington I loved the rain. Now living here in Western Washington it rains a bit too much for my taste. California here I come!

    @ Tayljim, No damage. Winds were only about 15 knots. Its when it comes from the south at 50 knots that blows me on to the break water wall. Thats what breaks things. But I still have rain water coming in. Im just going to keep patching it up and sell it. I need a new boat anyways. I didn’t really want this one.
    The weather patterns hear are very strange now. Many people are puzzled. Weather services are making incorrect predictions.

  • okay4now

    Extra–Maybe you like your drink cooler which shaking usually does. I know a lot of people who keep their Vodka in the freezer so they don’t have to ice it. Along with just more blended shaking will oxygenate something making the taste different…But I think you like to shake things up as well as stir things up so, Marina, it is hard to say why…

  • http://www.zenithmaritime.com/ CaptainJack

    RR, I thought Debra was aka Blondie?

    If the sun doesn’t rise at her request then physics need to be reprogram ed to make that happen.

    Open minded about Marina? Let me think about that for a moment…
    I guess I am. I think its because my respect for her intelligence. Also she doesn’t act like an old school librarian. I could see myself hanging out with her and having a lot of fun with her type of personality.
    I also find myself driven to improve my English skills (My most hated subject by far). Something about her, I can’t quite put my finger on it. Humm.

    I’m from Long Island where they have the iced tea’d drinks.

    I think they shake it because of the better mixing effect it has
    and bringing on a better flavor outburst.

    I heard it was named that to get attention. Like sex on the beach. Just to be edgy.

  • durandal

    This actually reminds me of something I heard, probably on the History Channel, that you might find interesting. James Bond drank vodka martinis, and for specific reason. The movies were made during the cold war, and vodka was really unpopular in America because it’s a Russian drink and therefore was heavily associated with communism. So to help Vodka sales in capitalist countries, they made James Bond, this good freedom-loving bad-guy-shooting secret agent, drink vodka.

  • roadrunrnch

    You know I am just yanking ya, Jack. I like the Videos as much as the next ( not as much as you.. but. ) I don’t know Marina from Eve. She is just a face on a video, Though a pretty face. But who knows the real Marina, Bet there must be someone with a story or two?

    You know I have never drank a Martini. Nope, never have. Im not even a wine drinker. I’ll drink wine if offered but I rarely buy it. I just haven’t found a wine that I like. I don’t like mixed drinks. They make me sick. I do on occasion have a margarita. It was the only drink my step mother would allow me to drink. Weird hu? Naw. Whats weird is I have Jimmy Buffett’s song Margaritaville as my calling party ringer.
    I usually just drink beer. Mac and Jack or Guinness.
    I have one beer every night before I go to bed so I can shut my brain down. Usually I buy that cheap beer, 211. 8.1% alcohol.

  • Bob

    You’re quite right, RRRoadie,
    The Marina who we all know is a fantasy that we have each built to our own design. That’s why she is perfect to each one of us, even though all our tastes are probably widely varying.
    Talk about all things to all men!
    Trouble is that, if we were to meet her in person, she would almost certainly not be the same as our fantasies and a certain amount of disappointment might be the result. On the other hand she might be even better than our wildest dreams.
    Anyway, I hope I never have to choose between rejecting Marina and hurting my wife, because whatever choice I made, I would regret it for the rest of my life.

  • versusx

    White/Black Russian are called that way b/c of the vodka, wasn’t invented in Russia. Like ‘Cape Cod’ is named after the Cranberries from Cape Cod or Irish Car Bomb is named b/c of the Irish drinks mixed in. Other than ‘Long Island Ice Tea’ I can only think of ‘Singapore Sling’

    it’s between Beaujolais region and Burgundy

    I’ll ask my agronomist friend if it’s related in anyway with the vine homonym ? where did you found that ?

    May I add another ‘localcohol’(tm) name ?
    it’s “Chartreuse”
    very good green liquor made by maceration of many mountain herbs, elaborated by a religious order ‘Les Chartreux’ . They took their name after that of mountains where they took refuge in the 16th century, here near Grenoble in the Alps.

  • plexusmaster

    Marina,
    One other idea: discuss why certain words are spelled a certain way. Ex. why does knee have the silent K? Because it is borrowed from the german word “knie” where the k is pronounced.

    Understanding spelling based on word origin is another area that helps children with dyslexia. Talk to you later.

    I just now did tick and watch it, CaptainJack. Marina is a most fascinating specimen, indeed. The manner in which she pauses in thought while searching for the appropriate words and then uttering another three, four words, and then again pausing for a moment before speaking. The mind searching for the better words to speak …, as Spock would say to Kirk, “Fascinating, Captain.”

    Fascinating, indeed. :smile:

    I didn’t just step off a spaceship and this is my first encounter with a human female. At this point in time all aspects of biological cognition is of interest to me, from the arachnids on up to mammals. And Marina, cerebrally speaking, is intriguing. I’m not just saying this to say it, either. I’m serious, as serious as cancer.

    Someday …, I imagine she most definitely would make a fine research partner. Perhaps I should or could change the name of a certain character in a book manuscript, too. Hmm … :cool:

    The reason one would order a Martini shaken and not stirred is because when you shake a Martini you break and melt the ice quicker, the result is a weak or – more mellow tasting Martini.

    “”You were very forthright with me, and Marina.”"
    I was? With what?

    “”For myself, it was a bit of a surprise to learn
    some of the more colorful details. Clearly, you
    have a desire to get past this so I won’t dwell
    on it.”"
    Which details where you referring to?

    “”You’ve always struck me as having many good
    qualities. Your stories and intel show a knack
    for the kind of detail that fuels my interest.
    Your instincts are basically good, but you still
    need to practise practice those typing skills! Don’t we
    all – LOL. Keep ‘em Flying”"

    Doug that was the nicest comment I have had in many years. Thanks Doug! Oh I will keep practicing the typing skills. Marina site will help with that. If you feel the urge to correct me, be my guest. I could always us a tip or two.

    Something is wrong with this video. At 1:39 it skips to the end, right as you’re talking about the most popular maker of vermouth at the time.

  • greenbush

    Let me get caught up. Answer to the shake question: shaking the mixture make it colder by the ice melting faster, and back then (early James Bond movies) the vermouth was made from potatoes, so shaking it made the potato oil blended. Toponym answer: Cognac, Java, Manhattan, Bordeaux, Champagne.

  • greenbush

    P.S. Video works A-OK for me with Firefox-Mozilla #3

    Hello Arx Virtus,
    Yes, it is true, there is an issue with that version (Std Quality) of the video. Sometimes, randomly it can work fine.

    Click on the YouTube logo in the video above and it will take you to YT. Then, underneath that video on YT you’ll see a High Quality link of the video which works fine.

    When you read the comments you’ll see many people had the same problem.

    Sweet you are. Did you ever hear the song “WORDS” by the BeeGee’s? word request “hip” or “hopps” as in beer or rushing”russian water” and cotton gin not vodka :grin:

  • davemarkwz

    One more reason why Hot For Words – both teacher and pets like
    their Martini’s shaken, not stirred.

    Invariably any Martini customer has chosen thier bar wisely. They’ve
    chosen their attending staff … wisely. Whether that staff member is
    male or female will not detract from the effect of making a Martini
    well by shaking – it is merely a side concern.

    Regardless, there is an undulating effect within the pectorial muscle
    area of the male or female bartender while making the drink. This
    can be as hypnotic as the drink itself. The phenomenon is reputed
    to have first occurred at Hooters or Winghouse however, this is
    unlikely. Reports of women getting the Martini’s shaken urge have
    occurred equally as early as Chippendales has been invented -
    - possibly earlier.

    My favorite cocktail is a Cape Cod (Cape Codder), vodka & cranberry juice with a lime. I don’t know if it was created on Cape Cod or just named that for the bogs near the cape.
    Love your work Marina. Excellent!

  • melikadothechacha

    Hey! I’m getting my responses caught up
    started of with 50, whittling away
    I think you got the joke about the typing pretty good – LOL :mrgreen:
    sum of those misteaks were intentional – I know my audience.
    1st part, you were forthright about your drinking, furthering
    my awareness beyond that previously known.
    2nd part, you discussed a very personal aspect regarding
    the help you received from your shipmate firend that was
    the big motivater for you to amend yourself.
    and…
    die Wartungsmodus put a screen up saying 60 minutes
    with a nice message from Marina about how the default
    message in German was cool, so she left it. Marina’s
    site upgrade message was the German text translated.
    well, i saw the screen come up, noted the time, and
    the next day – it was still there, about 15 hrs.
    if you look at the keyboard, “-” is a finger away from “0″
    (i typoed – sorry)

    I need you to resend your request for cocmment
    the other one is timed out, or something.

    about the “nicest comment” part.
    I’ll leave that honor, yet to come,
    to Marina. Gio took the TA spot!
    you can tell he’s smitten, everytime
    he comments, practacally. Worked

    A nice anniversary card – there’s the ticket :mrgreen:

  • caktonias

    Simply put, Bond was a wimp when it came to alcohol. The only reason you would shake a martini is to water it down as the ice will melt faster when the alcohol passes around it.

    But what can I say? He needed to keep his head in the game, so a weak martini shouldn’t count against him in the long run.

  • http://captainjack.ws CaptainJack

    I never got a report card yet. I think I got the April fools card. I think she will be over taxed by operating her site. She should really get others involved to keep the flow going.

    Well somelimse my misteaks are International. Some are truly mistakes. :oops:

    Yes I keep my drinking in balance. I don’t even have to think about it

    any more. I’m drinking right now as I type this message. I only drink to sleep. It also puts me in a happy mood. I don’t know why that is but im not complaining :mrgreen:

    Oh friend request timed out? Well then GOOD. :razz: Please deposit another quarter to make friends again… Beep..
    - I’ll look into it. Im not a fan of coco that much. It has many bugs. I was trying to see why Miss M thought it would be a good idea. It might just be politically minded idea. You know from a blogger here.

    Naw…. Bullshit. I was touched by your comment.
    “You’ve always struck me as having many good
    qualities. Your stories and intel show a knack
    for the kind of detail that fuels my interest.”

    Credit goes to you man… :mrgreen:
    I get comments from sheeple all the time. It means nothing to me. But to get a comment from someone as intelligent as you, really means something to me. Again thank you Doug. :)

    Gio got mentioned in as the pet. Good for him. Marina says the Teacher Pet is completely random. Which makes sense to me. I rarely win anything from random games. People have stated to me that I have the worst luck ever. There was a time I did a drawing where I had like 5 entries and there was one other entry. He won! Everyone’s jaw dropped to the floor. Then they congratulated me for being the unluckiest guy in the Navy. That actuality was better because I received more attention for the fact.
    What really got me excited was that Marina for once did respond to a comment I made a while back. I about fell out of my yacht.
    I do send an email or two now and then. They where purely a professional level. She respond back in a professional level. The conversation was the usual Ice cold business chit chat. Marina has much work to do. She has millions to teach. Its not fair for me to take away from any of that. I am just one little tiny voice in her world, as it should be.

    So enough of my crappy ranting. So if I say “Hoquiam traffic, this is Cherokee 29992 preparing to take of on runway 26 for a straight out departure, Hoquiam traffic.” You know what the heck im talking about?
    Just wondering what kind of flying you did.

    http://www.worldeventsguide.com/event/2891/Moscow-Russian-Federation/Russian-Independence-Day.html
    Russia declared its sovereignty on 12 June 1990 as a way of distancing itself from the crumbling Soviet Union. The following year when the Soviet Union was formerly broken up, Boris Yeltsin came to power and declared 12 June Russian Independence Day and a national holiday. But it was not until over a decade later in 2003 under the presidency of Vladimir Putin that the day became a grand parade. Now each year on 12 June there is a big celebration and parade at Moscow’s Red Square.

    Now Marina, dear teacher a small test for you, a tit for tat as it were:
    Do you know how Red Square got its’ name?
    (Hint: it has nothing to do with Communism. I found this bit of historical trivia in a book from the 1890′s.)

    Hum, one thing I can tell about Russians is that the can drink more than most humans :lol: .
    Some/Most of my old experiences end with falling from one street to the other (backward) and sing this Russian song, “Ruska ya Vodka….” I forgot the rest, and I never knew what it meant, but for some young ball-heads like we were it was just funny to sing it the whole day :oops: . I don´t want to talk about everything but the last “Vodka session”, I don´t know anything about it….. We were at a friends house and while all were in the living room me and a friend were sitting in the kitchen. The only thing I know is that the bottle was empty, and we left the house…….Later I woke up and a Woman told me what I did and said….Hell no way I do that again :oops:

    ok. here we go; one of the most common toponyms in latin america is the drink call CUBA LIBRE which is made with one pint of rum, ice cubes, half lemon squeezed, sprinkled salt and filled with coke, it come from the revolution times in cuba in the 50´s when a group of guerrilla guys was trying to overthrow batista´s goverment and USA send help to his goverment and in response a cuban political campaign said that both presidents drank a perfect combination: cuban rum and american coke and the result would be CUBA LIBRE. For the martine shaken not stired it comes from the most famous secret agent in the world james bond which in his movies every time that he asked for a drink in a place that he arrived he asked for it, and even he could know if it was shaken or stired, until pierce brosnan arrived in the movie “tomorrow never dies” james bond is drinking vodka straight shots but that was publicity device the vodka company paid several millions of dolars for james bond taking a sip of its vodka.

    Many years ago, I had the opportunity to stay for awhile in a Châlons-sur-Marne, a town east of Paris that was renamed Châlons-en-Champagne in 1998. During my stay, I spoke to students learning English in a lycée (not speaking French until later, much to the surprise of the students, who didn’t know I also spoke their native tongue). I also trekked over to Reims to see the magnificent cathedral there, as well as toured a “cave” where the sparkling wine was being processed. I was quite shaken by the experience. No doubt having an American on the premises caused a stir.

    The exclusive use of gruit was gradually phased out in favor of the use of hops alone in a slow sweep across Europe occurring between the 11th century (in the south and east of the Holy Roman Empire) and the late 16th century (Great Britain).[citation needed] In 16th century Britain, a distinction was made between ale, which was unhopped, and beer, brought by Dutch merchants, which was hopped. Nowadays, however, ale refers to beers produced through a top-fermentation process, not unhopped beer.

    The phasing out of gruit from brewing is linked to various factors. A possible political factor would be the general emancipation of princes (mainly German) from the political influence of the Roman Catholic Church[citation needed] in a movement that eventually was to lead to Martin Luther’s protestations turning into a fully-fledged uprising of those princes against the authority of Rome, in what is known as the Reformation. Princes wanting to undermine the power of the Church therefore tended to promote brewing with hops rather than gruit, to try and cut off this revenue for the monastic orders who had a monopoly on it.

    Some authors present the switch to hops as a Protestant crackdown on feisty Catholic tradition, and as a Puritan move to try and keep people from enjoying themselves with aphrodisiac and stimulating gruit ales by imposing the sedative effects of hops instead.[1] However, the switch to hops started in Germany some four or five centuries before the Reformation.[citation needed] Its later gradual enforcement in the 15th and early 16th centuries can in part be traced through legislation drafted by political rulers before the Reformation started.

    For example, the Bavarian Purity Law, which stipulates that the only ingredients that could be used in the production of beer were water, barley, and hops, dates from 1516, the year before

    The best “My name is Bond, James Bond” is in the very first Bond movie — Dr. No. I don’t drink – on two different wine tasting events, after merely sipping wine once to taste I started hurting at the back of my head. But I am OK with eating chocolate deserts that have alcohol in them.

  • kujo

    Shaken Or Stirred?:

    One never shakes a gin martini, as it would “bruise” the gin. The martini is thus stirred, which also results in a less homogeneous mixture which adds variations in texture and taste. This gives the gin martini a more complex taste.

    Vodka was traditionally distilled from potatoes and had oils from the potatoes in the liquor. When chilled the oils would tend to separate and make a cloudy drink. The vodka martini is also served as cold as possible. Shaking a vodka martini serves two purposes: 1) To distribute the oils in the mixture and give a clear drink; 2) Get the drink cold.

    Today most vodka is distilled from grains and there for has no issue with the oils. Back in the 1950′s when Ian Flemming wrote the Bond books is when the transition from potato to gain was being made hence the need to shake. Grain was more plentiful and required less filtering.

    I have had both types and personally prefer the potato vodka, as I feel it has a spicy taste. M, wie Sie Russin sind, was besser ist?

    There’s a Peruvian alcoholic beverage called Pisco whose name comes from the place it was first produced in the late 1500s. Pisco is a southern port city south of Lima. This city owes its name to a sea bird that inhabits on the rocky islands nearby. We use Pisco to prepare our national drink, “pisco sour”. This was created in the late XIXth century in Lima.
