Er, preground coffee? Don't get me started!

I doubt many others on here are quite as fussy about glassware as I!

hehe. Sometimes that's how I feel about certain wine decisions.

you mean cut (sharp) as opposed to rolled rims? I definitely prefer rims so thin they could almost cut your lip.

That'd be very interesting to read, I'm sure.

Experience just comes with…drinking. So you're on the right track.

Ah, I love tulip glasses. At the moment I'm using a massive wine glass for all alcohols, because I find it works incredibly well for spirits too, but at some point I'll probably get a cut-crystal Glencairn glass :D

That's an interesting approach. I do the opposite: I always go for something different. Until I'm buying wine for someone or to drink with someone — then I draw on that knowledge and get a wine that I've had before or something likely to be very similar.

Here, have another mug…

Not a huge fan of the vast majority of merlot around. Too often, it's used to produce overly casual wines that, unfortunately, remind me of friends downing bottles before parties.
