Strong drink from High Tatras.

[jigensnacks]

I. Fucking. Forgot to include one bit of information to the Jigen Alcohol Preferences Headcanon post.

This one is short, but I'm going to drop it under a Read More anyway.

Content warnings: alcohol, (a bit of) alcohol abuse.

what else would i write about lmao.

Anyway. His go-to is usually the expensive stuff, when they're riding the high of a successful heist, he splurges, buys the good stuff, not the usual bottle of rotgut for twenty bucks. Drains at least two with Lupin. Sometimes with Goe too, but he's got his own preferences, ones that don't mesh with the rest of the gang.

If they're going to drink some variant of whiskey, they trust Jigen's pick. Because they let Lupin pick a bottle once, and it ended up being one of the worse things they had to drink.

So the fun is had. Alcohol is drank merrily. They burned through the high-end stuff. And all the other alcohol in the hideout. The morning is going to be a disaster, but they'll be alright the day after. I have a headcanon about the whole gang, plus Zenigata, being pretty much functional alcoholics, with two exceptions - those being Jigen, for he slips into the non-functional territory once in a while, and Fujiko, because she drinks far less than the rest. But that's for an entirely different post.

But Jigen, he doesn't want to get used to the high-end alcohol. And to keep himself appreciative of its value, he wanders off, buys the worst, cheapest bottle of whatever (the worst thing he's found so far was a 200ml bottle of some no-name vodka for two bucks) and he just sits with it, stares it down, and he knows it'll be a horrible experience. But that's the point.

There's a reason he reaches for the bottom-shelf supply after indulging in actual quality alcohol - to never forget how good he has it, that he's not restricted to this gas-station swill that surely only exists to keep people on the wagon. It keeps his taste buds sharp, he refuses to forget the taste of bad liquor, he doesn't want his standards to rise too much. He wants to keep his appreciation of the higher arts, he wants to remember the stark contrast between cheapshit wine and the bottle worth half the monthly salary of some office clerk.

Even though Jigen feeds his habit with mid-range liquors, stuff like the aforementioned fifth of whiskey for twenty bucks, he still reaches for the bottom shelf every once in a while. Partly because he doesn't want to get spoiled, so to speak, partly because his self-worth is sort of tied to his choice of poison. If the job ends in a catastrophe, he grabs the worst drink he can find. A little self-harm never hurt anyone, right?

Tatratea is a tea-based herbal liqueur, made by Karloff Tatra Distillery in Kežmarok based on traditions from the High Tatra Mountains of Slovakia. Originally known as Tatranský čaj, the Tatratea brand originates in lodges set in the high altitudes of the High Tatra Mountains. An old custom is that visitors to chalets high in the Tatra Mountains were welcomed in from the cold with hot herbal tea doused in a concentrated alcohol. This hot herbal tea formed the base for Tatratea. src.: World Spirits Guide, https://en.everybodywiki.com/Tatratea

Szeretem azokat az órákat amikor csak azok a gondolatok vannak a fejembe, hogy 5 cent jäger, 3 cent szicsek, 3 cent tatratea, 5 cent jameson de basszus az ötödik tétel nincs meg.. áá nem fog eszembe jutni, felnézek a plafonra semmi, ránézek a vendégre aki kérte, miller, miller ez az megvan, de a hűtőt is tölteni kéne de fontosabb a mosogatás, de ahhoz elsőnek rámolnom kéne az asztalokat de ahhoz tömegbe kellene belemennem, de már tisztáztuk, ez az érzés nem én vagyok. Rámolok, mosogatok, hűtőt kéne mostmár tőltenem de helyette 5 cent jäger, 5 cent unicum, 5 cent csökmői.

És te sehol nem vagy, nem létezel arra a pár órára

TatraTea: a Magas-Tátra lelke egy üvegben

A TatraTea nem csak egy ital, hanem egy kultúra és hagyomány szimbóluma, amely Szlovákiából, a lenyűgöző Magas-Tátra lábainál született. A Magas-Tátra nem csupán Európa egyik legimpozánsabb hegyvonulata, de a térség turizmusa és a helyi közösségek életmódja szempontjából is központi szerepet tölt be.

Itt, ahol a természet kihívásai és a szépségei keverednek, jött létre ez a különleges likőr, mely a helyi teakultúrát ötvözi a modern ízlésvilággal. A TatraTea készítője, a Goral Vodka Distillery, a hagyományos destillálási technikákat modern technológiákkal ötvözve alkotta meg ezt a különleges italt.

A termékcsalád többféle ízben és alkoholtartalommal kapható, melyek között mindenki megtalálhatja a neki leginkább tetsző változatot. A likőrök gyógynövényekkel, gyümölcskivonatokkal dúsított teakeverékekből készülnek, melyeket tölgyfahordóban érlelnek, hogy a lehető legfinomabb ízvilágot nyújthassák. A TatraTea így nem csak egy ital, hanem egy élmény, mely összeköti az embereket a természettel és a kultúrával.

Ez a különlegesség teszi a TatraTeát tökéletes választássá minden különleges alkalomra, legyen szó családi ünnepekről vagy baráti összejövetelekről. Aki kipróbálja, garantáltan megérzi a Magas-Tátra varázslatos atmoszféráját minden kortyban.

A TatraTea megvásárolható a Heinemann webáruházában: https://www.heinemann.hu/tatratea

no further posts today the tatratea is taking over my soul and body I'm sorry I'll be back tomorrow my drafts are staring me down fr fr

Tomorrow is a holiday so it's essentially a Friday night for me and I've had 2,5 Tatrateas so I'm NOT gonna be coherent but Dune is trending and I have and have had mixed feelings about it.

First: I was like 14 when I first read it - not the age for the best, deepest expected reading comprehension and it probably shows.

Second: I have some positive feelings about it, because who doesn't like a good backstabby political drama and a revenge story? In a sci-fi environment too?

Third: When I first read this book I was a very basic teenager the colour of A4 printing paper, growing up in a very monochome city. Things are different now, the Budapest of today is much more diverse but me? I haven't met a Black person in real life until I was like 15, and even that was in France. Safe to say I was not thinking about race issues at all when reading this book.

What I DID see was an outsider getting his sorry ass saved by a group of oppressed people and in thanks declaring himself their boss.

The fact that this takeover was made possible by the work of generations of the same powerful outsiders sowing myths among the above mentioned group of people didn't make any of this any better in my eyes.

And sure, I was told by the book about the abstract prospect of a future where the whole thing will blow up in Paul's face and the known universe will be doomed because of his decisions, but since Dune proper ends on a somewhat triumphant note for Paul... I dunno I just never felt like reading the sequels where all of that actually happens, so I was left feeling hella sour about the whole story.
