The whatever-it-says Ouzo is a NZ import that I
picked up at our favourite Petone deli, Ontrays.
Unfortunately I got the last one and they are not
getting
any
more.
In issue
121 we
showed
you 4
Czar’s
Vodka
bottles
th
from Russia with football shirts on them. As you can see a 5 has turned up.
The set of 5x50ml McHenry bottles are new and from a Tasmanian distillery.
Thanks to member Graham Ramsay from Brisbane for these.
Talking of bottles from Australia you will find an article later in miNiZ122 about
Australian re-bottler Hand Picked Spirits. The bottle on the left is from another
Aus re-bottling company oddly named Whisky Loot. This is a subscription
service where they send you three different 60ml bottles weekly or monthly.
Unfortunately this is the only bottle I have a picture of but all are in the same
classy bottle. Pictures please for both miNiZ and Miniature Bottle Library.
The AGM was very poorly attended but thankfully all the committee members
offered to re-stand. See the web site for a list and contact information.
As usual there are only articles written or contributed to by the usual suspects, with the exception of
the Vok article by 2018 member from Australia Jo Malicki. If Jo can do it so can YOU!
I am looking forward to meeting or catching up with some of you at the Midwest Miniature Bottle Club
th
Show in St. Louis (April 26-28). This is the 40 year and the 5 and 10 years are always the best
shows. It may be too late for this year but if at all possible plan to go sometime – It will blow your
mind the first time and you will want to keep going back.
