Erm, the one that comes in a bottle! :lol: :wink:

(I know what you mean though Nikita; some are definitely 'smoother' than others!)

Just wondering if you love it or hate it?

Cheers

Paliometoxo,

sounds like you picked up foreign drinking habits.

Well that is because we have "lighter" versions of Raki which is preferred by women in general :lol:

And they are closer to the Ouzo's I have tried in the past.

No offence meant to the ladies, as I know many who would drink me under the table any day of the week :lol:

My worst experience with Ouzo had to be in Santorini.

I do not remember how many bottles we drank but I do remember having to catch the flight VERY early the same night, with a stopover on Athens, was probably the most horrendous and the longest flight of my life :?
