    Happy Friday!

    December 22, 2023 in Argentina ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    A tradition that Brenda and I have maintained since retiring is our end-of-the-week happy hour, which, at home, is usually a dram of good single malt. Here in Argentina, however, Scotch is very, very expensive. Fortunately, this wine producing nation offers mind-blowing Malbec at bargain basement prices and, as an added bonus, excellent sparkling wine produced using the Champagne method. So good is the Argentine terroir that Champagne powerhouses Chandon and Mumm have production facilities here. And so, today's happy hour libation is Mumm's Brut Rose that I picked up on sale at the local supermarket for 2080 pesos, about $2.89 CDN!
    Cheers!
