Sherry and Brandy?

[brappy]

I have 2 or 3 cases of various sherries in the cellar. I love to taste, and even more, drink sherry. There is one small drawback. Very few people appreciate sherry, especially a fino which is what I prefer. I still get to pop open a bottle here and there and whenever I find a great deal, I always pick that up.

Quick history: Years ago, I worked at a Tapas restaurant in the Chicago suburbs. I was a waiter there. The restaurant boasted a sherry list of approx. 100+ sherries and a few ports. I was asked by the owner, just after training what I thought about sherry. My reply was it reminded me of rubbing alcohol. He told me I had a bad attitude and had me stay after work for 2 weeks straight to taste sherry. Really the only reason this stopped was because it was getting expensive to open all those bottles.

My only mistake there was I should have told him I hated wine too.
