My Dad’s recipe, dark chocolate and red wine.
Lived to be almost 94 with little to no mental issues.
Yep, a time-honored classic combo. A small piece of dark chocolate left to melt on the tongue, followed by a sip of whiskey - that can be special as well. The chocolate sort of bonds with the evaporating ethanol, which carries the "flavor" all through your sinuses. Wine doesn't quite have enough alcohol in it to produce that effect. It truly has to be tried, mere description does not do the experience justice.
