Tsin Tskaro - Hamlet Gonashvili



Well I need to listen to this even if you don't. At some point in my life, I want to drink Georgian wine from Georgian pots, in Georgia.

Not too much to ask, eh?

  1. Tom, thank you for posting that. It was beautiful and he had the most amazing voice. I played it on You tube and reading all the comments - what they're going through in Georgia we can't even begin to imagine. I loved it.

    1. Georgians, Armenians, Jews - the old races have much in common and many things to be both envied and feared.

    1. How undignified. Much better to fall off a ship in the Baltic.

    2. No, but I have paged through Bram Stoker's extensive notes for Dracula.

  7. It's not too much to ask at all. I had the same desire to drink a nice cold Vouvray on the bank of the Loire and when I was 50 I did: it was a small moment, hardly worth writing about, but it was very soul satisfying.

    Do you want to drink the wine in a pot, or do you want to pour the wine FROM a pot?
