When I go traveling to faraway places, I usually have some of that with me. Here's the blasphemy. I usually pour an entire bottle into a....plastic Nalgene bottle! The glass is just too fragile. I've also grown quite fond of the Macallan Cask Strength. And while you may laugh to hear it, when on the road in India, I do enjoy the better grades of Royal Challenge and finally, what I consider to be one of the world's best rums, Old Monk. --Jim On Jul 2, 2005, at 8:04 PM, Jayanand Govindaraj wrote: > The stuff I always have at home: > > 1.
