8) How was the Schnapps?
Obstler, (farmers schnapps) is the best for me, but stay away from the Krautinger. In the Wildschönau, where Krautinger is made, it is treated like god. I can vouch that I have, on many occasions, surreptitiously poured the Krautinger into any handy plant pots.
There are many modern variations, some quite pleasant, Blaubiere, Hazelnusse, Peach, etc.
Every winter, I meet with my friend Walter and taste a few. "Dave, I have this special schnapps, from my cousin, uncle, nephew, friend, at the other side of the mountain, far end of the valley, from Alpbach, Westendorf, Kitzbuhel......
They mostly tasted the same, as they have for the past 40 odd years, but it's the cameradie that counts.....
