A Small Taste of Heaven!

I'm not sure I understand why Champagne is considered the Queen of celebratory drinks. Not when there's something as beautiful as Tawny Port out there.
A drink that tastes like fairies had to have made it. A drink that's rich and heavy on the tongue and full of so much flavour you can almost taste it from the smell. I'm serious. I'm not exaggerating, my pitiful attempts at describing a glass of Tawny Port by Ficklin doesn't do justice to the actual thing. And so far, for us, it HAS to be Ficklin. Oh you can get half way there with *other* brands..... but that's like comparing sunlight with a light bulb...you just can't. I'm not going to even try and go into one of those flowery and wordy descriptions of the taste of Ficklin's 10 year Tawny Port. Except to say the flavours and feel are of good whiskey and honey.
If I could do my life over I don't think I'd change a thing, except perhaps to add a bottle of Ficklin's Tawny Port to my wedding day. Oh yes, it's that good!
But please, please don't save this for just a so called special occasion. The sunset looked pretty tonight, that's occasion enough. Or maybe you got your favorite sale paper in the mail, your email inbox wasn't full of junk this morning or your favorite tv show is on tonight. Reason enough to open a bottle of heaven! So far we've found bottles of Ficklin Tawny Port that's aged 10 years to run about 20 to 25 bucks. That seems like such a small price to pay for something this good!
