>filters poorfagsBut higher abv drinks are a better value for your dollar?
The bottom shelf taylor port used to 4.99 at my grocery store but after covid they raised it to 6.99. 1 dollar I can understand but 2 is unacceptable. its now 7.99 a near 100% increase in 5 years.
My teeth hurt after drinking sweet drinks so I don't drink port anymore but I used to drink a lot of tawny portIt's nice
>>20965631>>filters poorfags...but port isn't all that expensive?
>>20965631Port isn’t that expensive you larper. It is surprisingly unpopular among the working class though.
>>20965660>>20966087What is with this offensive use of question marks at the end of statements? It's an epidemic.
>>20966098The internet is full of ESLs.
I remeber going into the store and grabbing the best bottle of Port way in the back and the manager yelled "It must be the Port-King!"
>>20966093Because the working class drink to get blasted not to enjoy the flavor profile of the drink, so drinking port is seen as a waste of money, also depending where you live this kind of drinks areba special occation deal, I remember buying a 10 yo tawny and the cashier asked me if I wanted it wrapped it like a gift with a bow and everything, they immediatly assume is for a gift and not to drink yourself, and this was a 10 yo one mind you, imagine one of the more expensier onesMost wagies are unnable to afford shit like port, they live in a budget so thight that an expense like that would damage them for months, specially the ones that rent and have kids
>>20966087>Cheapest port is at 1625th place in alcohol per crown at Systembolaget No self respecting alcoholic pays that much for their fix
>>20965631$15 for a 2L cask of port, poorfag oldfags and alkies buy it all the time in aus
>filters poorfagsno>filters alkiesYes. It filtered me as a budding teenage alcoholic. It was the only alcoholic beverage I woudn't steal from my parents because I couldn't stomach the sweetness.
>>20967535>It was the only alcoholic beverage I woudn't steal from my parents because I couldn't stomach the sweetness.I hope you have since recovered from your faggotry
The grapes are crushed by cute girls feet. It’s totally worth it.https://youtu.be/l3PZPBYcJQQ
>>20966499What do you do asshole?
>>20966499Hobos love port for the fortification of it. You're dumb if you think only upper crust people with refined palates enjoy port. Clearly you enjoy it and you're not some wealthy business type raised classy. You're here. You seem to have 'the working class' conflated with alcoholics. You're not very bright though, so you're forgiven for your grievous blunder.>more expensierWhat the fuck is that? And again, port is NOT expensive at all. I can walk into any supermarket and find two ports in 750 ml bottles for $7.99, which is the average price for regular red wine varietals in the budget region. And there will be maybe ONE fancy, expensive port for sale. Meaning that inexpensive port on par with non-fortified wines outsell what you think of as 'gift bottles'. You're somehow a snob who thinks people with jobs can't afford $8 wine? It doesn't really get much cheaper actually.You can't spell for shit so I'm guessing you're not American. You have no clue about anything. God damn, kid.
>>20968349Huh? Dude was drinking enough at that point that the extra sugar was giving him hangovers. Nothing faggotty about liking a drier drink. Quit pretending liking syrupy sweet shit is some measure of refinement. Real wine drinkers consider port a dessert wine along with sauternes and marsala. If you are looking to catch a buzz the extra sugar will defeat the extra alcohol when it's hangover time.
>>20969894There's so much insecure projection in here i don't even know where to start.All i said was anon was a faggot for thinking port is too sweet to drink. Everything else you made up.
>>20969889slander.a hobo is a working man, what you posted is a bum.
>>20965631But does it have legs?
>>20970149based and ignorancepilled
>>20966098>getting offended by question marks nowreally sick of you snowflakes...
>>20966093partly I think it's an association as being a drink for old people like your grandparents and partly it typically at least in the US only being depicted as a drink rich people drink, nevermind being quite cheap relative to other beverages. the sweetness also tends to throw some people off too
>>20969889Absolutely assblasted>reddit spacingGo back to the gas chamber
>>20965631>alkies being filtered by anything with alcohol in itplease. they'd drink horse piss if it had alcohol in it. I used to be that way too and would drink port
>>20973167looks like you hurt someone's feelings and they snitched on youzoomers are the biggest tattletales
>wine snobs>coffee snobs>beer snobsWhy are they all such faggots?
>>20972923Paragraphs aren’t Reddit spacing, newfag .Reddit spacing is a space between every sentence.It looks a bit like this.Now go and lurk for another couple years before you post again.
>>20966041Get used to it. Inflation is only "slowing". Prices are still going up. Wages aren't keeping pace, of course. Haven't been for decades>>20966499It's not seen as a waste of money, it's seen as a drink for bums, grandparents, and people on welfare. Which it is, unless you're Spanish>>20973239Every man has his cope
>>20974644Weird how people can simultaneously say that the working class is getting screwed, while sincerely believing that people who earn $1000 per second by just existing shouldn't pay their fair share because that's gommunism and everyone would just stop working if they weren't living in constant fear of starvation or homelessness
>>20965631I actually love Port now that I know that I really enjoy the flavors.One of my best times on a cruise ship was after I befriended the sommelier each night during dinner wine selections. Next, I then convinced my dining room tablemates to sign up with my family for a special class one afternoon on the topic of Port. We had the congenial sommelier all to ourselves, had a whole flight set up of various tawnys and vintage ports. The chef brought out a series of various little courses of savory and sweet items for each of us, to sip and try our vintages before and after each bite. Pastries, different types of cheeses, chocolate creations, types of chocolate, etc I laughed and learned and got hugely tipsy on expensive little things for a good 2-3 hours of fun. In my kitchen, port wine enhances one of my favorite gravies.
>>20974681The wealthy have a billion ways to evade taxes and get away with it, that's much harder for people who can't afford accountants. Besides, any money the government gets is just going to be spent on housing migrants, Shaniqua's 9th kid and endless proxy wars against Russia/China.
>>20974759>we can't tax them because they might still try to evade taxes!>actually we shouldn't have government programs I personally can't understand because my entire view of the world is based on childish notions of punishment and rewardIt's ok if my kids get measles because at least some black kid has it worse
>>20974761>We can't tax them, so we'll just tax you instead>all government programs are good even when they don't benefit the majority of people/even have detrimental effects
>>20974793>I can't tell what it's doing so it must be a waste of moneyYou'd make a good CEO
>>20974761>>actually we shouldn't have government programsfor non-natives
Put it in some lemonade.
>>20974798>it's ok if this person gives my kids measles because at least they didn't get free giebs which conflicts with my confused old testament morality
>>20974797>I blindly trust Our Leaders and The Science, even when the things they do have clear negative effectsYou'd make a good cotton picking boot licker.
>>20974807>I trust shit that has worked well for humanity for over 200 years over a psyop custom designed to stimulate the most primitive parts of my brainyes
>>20973239Because they try to figure out what is good and what is bad, instead of just tasting what is good and what is bad. Then, if a beer/wine/coffee/whiskey you like isn't favorable on their spreadsheet, they call you a pleb/tastelet/child.
>>20974644>t. wine snob
>>20974804Are you retarded? You sound retarded. I wish retards could realize how retarded they are and commit retardicide on themselves.By retarding their intake of oxygen by hanging, of course.
>>20974810>>I trust shit that has worked well for humanity for over 200 yearsYou mean like controlling who comes into your country?
>>20965631I drank exclusively white porto when I was in Porto for few days. fun times, good stuff. the rest is 2sweet4me

>>20975678damn, you got covid real bad huh anon? Hopefully you regain taste at some point.
>>20974802Seems like it would be too sugary, but maybe if you omit sugar from the lemonade it would work out
>>20969871She can crush my grapes with her feet if you catch my drift
>>20977825Yeah, cut back on the sugar a bit. It's really good, you get all the interesting wine taste in a long iced drink.
>>20965631>>filters poorfags and alkies>he doesn't know about port 777
Never had port and now feel like trying some. Recommend me a nice, but affordable bottle I can find in germany.
