Either it was the cognac, or the water, but my evening I felt great. Love the taste, but as you say, it is a very acquired taste.
Borjomi helps indeed when you're sick! It is well known that for. The Georgians say it and my experience says it as well
It's just a pity that Borjomi doesn't belong to a Georgian company (I guess it's Russian now....)
