I like tasting alcoholic beverages, but it's not because I actually like the taste.

In furthering that, I've ordered two gin advent calendars and one wine advent calendar.

I will not get through them in December. But having 100ml bottles of wine definitely appeals to me, as it's about as much wine as I'd want to drink, and if I pour half of _that_ out, it's still not very much.

But then I still get to try more things, and eventually put them into my wiki of wine and gin tastings.

Yeah, I think that sort of thing tends to be sad, as it's always nice when there's a wide array of options, especially options that one is a fan of. But if everyone else doesn't go there, yeah, not going to last.

Though this does also remind me of a German store in San Francisco. When I visited it, after having lived in Germany the first time, it felt a bit like being back. Even though I would be getting things like Tempo tissues.

But that store has been there for decades, somehow, so clearly they found their market. But it wasn't a restaurant.
