BECHEROVKA - LIVE FOR EVER


Another Saturday, and another excursion... This weeks trip was to a beautiful town of Karlovy Vary. Known for it´s healing spas, medicinal water and most importantly... the Becherovka museum. Having tried the healing water and felt sick, it was my only option to quench my thirst with a few shots of Becherovka. Its interesting stuff, made from over 100 herbs and spices it has a taste of christmas pudding about it. Goes beautifully with apple juice and it is the most likely reason for me to fail my exam this thursday!! I was also informed at the museum that the founders the the 1600 lived for over 100 years! This is a picture taken after our tour of the museum and the tasting session. Its not everyone, there were a few stragglers, as you can imagine. I will be bringing a bottle home for you all to sample! By the way I will be returning this Saturday... stanstead... 17.40 (easyjet)!
