    Champagne isn’t actually that great, and I’m saying that having lived in Reims for a couple of years.

    It is entirely possible to create great, Champagne - adjacent alcoholic beverages though. Italian prosecco comes to mind, Ruggeri makes a mean Superiore Brut.

      I’m good with champagne as long as it’s so dry it cuts like razor blades. :) Obviously no connoisseur, but I judge champagne on how hard it cuts going down. Almost the same with red wine, better be dry as hell. And white? Dryer the better.

      My favorite beer is Keystone Light. No one take advice from me.
