I don't drink that much and I tend to like quality stuff instead of going on a rampage of cheap alcohols, even if it means not as often and more expensive. Normally, when I am home alone, I never drink beer but mostly porto, red wine or a whiskey in the evening. Beer and Vodka seem to be more of a social thing in general where I'll drink with people around.
I have a few bottle of Scotch Whiskeys over there (which one of the thing that I do prefer) and some of the top vodkas in the world but I drink it with parcimony. My favorite are Talisker and Cao Ila but I am never unsensitive for a good MacAllan.
Porto and red wine are also things that I quite like and i am happy to have found in Lyle another red wine amateur with who I have the chance to exchange ideas and impressions about bottles. I have a little cave here, around 65 bottles that I did stack over the past 5 years and that (for most of them) I intend to open in 10-25 years depending of the bottles, I hope to get it up to 100-150 if I remain in Europe for another couple of years. For what I drink more on a weekly base, I simply go and buy them at the wine store and god knows that there are plenty around here.
The good thing about living in Luxembourg is: you'Re 45 minutes away from the best wine producers in the world, 25 away from the 2 countries that produce the best beer (Belgium #1 and Germany #2 IMO), alcohol wise, that's a nice strategic little place.
