Well the Dominicans have been pretty successful with their rum, and many tourists waking up on the bathroom floor can testify that the stuff delivers.
But Vodka is in fashion now, and some enterprising folks decided it was time for the DR to have their own.
Since I am a big huge fan of Dominican innovation and enterprise I went out and plunked down 325 pesos at my local liquor store for a bottle and went home to make myself my very first Dominican Vodka martini.
Here is my review. I guess.
I am too messed up to read the label right now so you will have to read the fine print if you want a bottle for yourself. Plus the kitchen is downstairs and I'm not getting up till I finish this drink. Maybe not then either. It's the one that says its made in DR. You'll find it, just read all the labels, the brand name is not Spanish at all, its has a bunch of letters in it, I forget which ones.
Anyway this is actually round 2. Round 1 was last night. I had about 3 shots worth and had a great evening. Long philosophical discussion with the wife regarding the subtle difference between discernment and paranoia.
This was followed by great sex (though that might have been a dream) and at no point did I actually feel drunk in entire evening, right until the point where I passed out.
In the morning though, I was real hung over. I mean hung over as if I had been drinking brugal, and a lot more than 3 shots worth.
So my point is, that stuff tastes great, goes down smooth, and there is a price to pay the next morning. In that sense it is very similar to many Dominican experiences.
So please, drink responsibly, use protection, and somebody please tell me what this stuff is called because that label keeps moving all over the place and I just lkhkjn d bskjbdf huebbbskjbdbnfb e bfkdjbskjhe f dhhhhhhh eheeee.
