Just in time for the weekend? Tamworth Distilling, has a new brandy that tastes like smoked trout. They’ll start selling it November 17th for $65 a bottle. They also have a whiskey that tastes like crab . . . and another that tastes like venison. (???)

And one more for the road  . . .

A new report finds Americans are NOT the biggest binge-drinkers in the world, But we’re up there. It looked at 33 wealthy nations and how common it is. They defined it as six or more drinks in one drinking “session”, and Denmark ranked first.

  • 37% of Danes have done some binge-drinking in the past month.
  • Then it’s Romania, 36% . . .
  • The U.K., 35% . . .
  • The U.S. is 10th at 23%.

If you just look at stats for women, we rank higher . . . American women are ranked fourth in the world at 21%. The U.K. ranked first at 26%.
