In the Namibian desert...
So Whilst away on the great trek, people from the States came for a visit to my wee town.

I did not know them from a bar of soap, but being old timers that lived here 40 odd years ago, I did what we normally do, let them use my bakkie for driving around in.

The even crossed the border with it......

I unfortunately never got to meet the folk, but on my return from tour, I found assorted gifts had been thrown in my general direction.....

One of these gifts being a bottle of cognac valued at around R800 ...

Now I do not know cognac , never had the stuff,

Should I .......

1) Keep the bottle as a collectors item!

2) swap it out for 2 cases of Draught and a bottle of the Son of James!

3) Attempt to be a snooty dick and whip it out at my next big braai to impress my lowly friends!

4) Save it for one of those drunken nights when I go on a one man bender and all my Son of James is finished!

5) Use it to start my next 30 braai fires, instead of using blitz!

6) Wrap it up and give it to the English Father in law!

7) Use it to clean electronic components!

8) Pretend to be knob cookery type and flame some steak in it!

9) Have a wee sluk! Who know's I might Like it....

10) 800 Bucks a bottle...... the mind boggles....use it to numb the pain when the boks get kicked out the WC!

:cry:

Put it in a cupboard till inspiration hits.
It will call to you when it is ready.
 
post a pic so we can see what Cognac it is.

its the champagne of Brandy's dont waste it.
I would try it out, its pretty good. If you not keen on it neat, have it with apple juice.

makes a good steak sauce as well.


end of the day, your best just keeping it as part of your collection..
 
Screw those options.

Use it to marinate a braai chop :cool:

Aye! But Pork or Lamb? There be more questions than answers!

YOu can scratch 10) off your list.

The Never say Die Fan! Could save it for when they win the WC! :whistle:

Me thinks this might be the correct choice to make!

Remy Martin is awesome! We used to have it at one company directors house all the time. Save if for a cold winters evening, goes down smooooooth.

PS: remember to warm the cognac in your hand before swirling and taking a swig.
