So we decided to bring a few bottles back in hand luggage. A heavy bag to carry for several hours but worth it for the low cost!


The cheaper bottles were OKish - just not as good in the cooler temperatures and overcast UK.


The expensive one, opened to share with some friends on a special occasion, was ..... completely undrinkable. Utterly, utterly horrible. I think I tipped it down an outside drain whilst hoping that the drain would survive the experience.
