Open It is well to remember that there are five reasons for drinking: the arrival of a friend, one's present or future thirst, the excellence of the wine, or any other reason.

I'm glad you like the pacharan. Here's another bottle, homemade this time. Vice has its adjacent allures beside its primary intent. The beautiful curve of a pipe, for example. How often has this led to quiet thought? The craftsmanship of a gold or silver cigarette lighter. The aroma of a Cuban cigar. Here the warm amber light within the bottle is most appealing. An invitation to drink.

Yes, vice has its place. I hope though that what was said at the circular garden table remains within the confines of the great open outofdoors, where only a passing fly or bug may have overheard. What's said, revealed, thought and expressed within the bar itself , I'm confident, is always most private and never made public. Though pacharan should be drunk carefully, only a shot or two at a time. It is most powerful, and comes up upon you, if drunk to excess, most suddenly and powerfully. And your head will deliriously fly. How do I know? That is a secret of the bar.

Yes, two or three nips should be fine. And the men seated at that table may be singing by now.
