Drinking Paraphernalia

15 January 2010, 19.31 | Posted in Uncategorized | 2 comments »

One thing I genuinely miss about drinking is the paraphernalia.

I’m an object guy, plain and simple. The items that allow (or promote) an activity are of tantamount importance. In my drinking days I collected flasks, shakers, black and tan spoons, assorted coozies. You name it. I had all sorts that facilitated boozing.

This collection extended to a baffling selection of glassware. Tulip pint glasses for imperial pints, Riedel wineglasses, etc, etc. Like most good drinkers, it didn’t really much matter what the sauce was poured from, but having the “correct” accoutrement made it a bit more fun.

After all, martini glasses seem to just make more sense than downing chilled vodka from a coffee mug.

It’s with that mindset that, almost four years on from my last drink, I appreciate the care taken by my friends at Denim Demon in how they carry their favored drink. Oskar tells me, “Galliano Hot Shot is the world’s greatest shot, so we wanted to celebrate that with the worlds first Galliano Hot Shot case. Custom made interior for everything you need in order to make four perfect Hot Shots. Excellent to bring along when your on the road visiting clients.”

A testament to the Denim Demon sense of fun and a dedication to doing things right.

Awesome promotional tool.

    Congratulations on not drinking for the past four years. That, and not criticizing others that do drink, takes a great amount of effort.
    What did you do with the paraphenilia that you collected over the years?

  2. Could have done with this tonight when out with Mr D. Ended up with Mexican beer and margaritas instead…..Be good….
