Someone on here (Cancer?) said Drambuie was nice.
So, believing everything I am told on the internet, I've just bought a bottle, swayed in no small part by the nice font on the bottle.

Assuming this hasn't been a £23.95 error and it is universally derided as an upmarket Buckfast, how is it best consumed?

Uuuuughghghh
I can't believe you were sucked into buying bottled evil

I misread the label - I thought I'd bought a 'bottled weevil'.
Gut-ted.

You don't (or I don't) what?
I don't understand, I'm afraid. Help is what I am asking for, though so please do help if you can.

Though being a breast owner I would be allowed to consume it. Slippery slope mate, it will be Campari next..........

In an armchair
By the log fire, prefereably while wearing a smoking jacket.

I am ALWAYS wearing a smoking jacket
Unless of course I am in my top hat and cape combo.

On average,
how often do you lose your monocle?
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 19 Jan 2010, 12:44, Reply)

More often than I care to admit.
Luckily I have my batman stood by all times with a selection of replacements in varying styles, to suit my mood.

Quite so.

I thought about buying a top-hat and monocle combo
Thought it would have gone down well in lectures.

Silly monty
you need a bottle of Oban.
(Halfy By light alone, Tue 19 Jan 2010, 12:43, Reply)

isn't drambuie for benders?
if so, you made the right choice.

I think the stuff is fucking vile frankly, and it would be best drunk with something that masks the taste

Is it? Good Lord I have erred, then.
Never had the 'pleasure' y'see, and thought I'd give it a pop.

Itt's ok with lemoade
but a bit girly :p I can drink it though on my account of being a girl.

The only spirit I ever drink with a mixer is gin.

Don't listen to them Monty
Enjoy with some measure of water, depending on personal preference. These working class people don't know what they're talking about.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Tue 19 Jan 2010, 12:53, Reply)

Don't do it Monty.
Today you take a sip of Drambuie, tomorrow you have a mouthful of man-meat.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 19 Jan 2010, 13:16, Reply)

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!
On the one hand it might be a nice drink - but on the other, I don't want to be an online homo - no way.

As your attorney I suggest:..
...you go to the pub and have a shot of the piss before making a decision.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 19 Jan 2010, 13:55, Reply)

I remember doing flaming drambuies as a teenager
light a glass of it, lick the palm of your hand and put it over the top of the glass (it will suck onto your hand), quickly remove your hand, snort the fumes and neck the liquid.

Utterly pointless.

RIGHT!
Don't listen to these mincers. Not sure if half the Drambuie detractors on here are fully paid up chutney ferrets, or simply haven't tried it. It's facking lovely stuff.

Drambuie is best drank straight, on the rocks. Sip to savour, then as the honeyed spices work their magic, glug like a madman.

You see, I trust you....

Vociferous, perhaps
Wrong, definitely.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 19 Jan 2010, 14:57, Reply)

Get in amongst it mate
As i say, it is quite sweet, but the spices balance it out. I'm sure your exquisite palate will approve!

If you like the taste of demerara sugar...
...mixed with baby sick.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 19 Jan 2010, 15:07, Reply)

mmmmmmmmmmm
my favourite.

I have tasted baby sick AND i have tasted demerara sugar and I can say with some authority, that Drambuie does not taste like an amalgalm of both.
