Like, my servants have started bringing the lead shavings when I ask for the wine. I know I shouldn’t overindulge, but I just can’t get the wine down without it.
Just make sure you mix it with water in the right proportion, no amount of lead will improve the wine if you drink it undiluted like a barbarian
Please, what sort of savage do you take us for?
Are we not civil?
Lead, being both hot and dry in its nature, is an excellent additive for wine, which is cool and wet. You have to balance your humours, or sickness will surely take you.
Taking lead out of wine? What’s next, using something other than lead in our plates and our makeup? Don’t be crazy.
Lead gets the brightest whites in paints.
If people weren’t meant to drink liquids infused with lead, why did the gods make our pipes out of it?
Come now.
I engaged in vigorous dialogue while my villa was being renovated. The process of casting these pipes and joining them so there are no leaks is quite fascinating. I paid the man well for the inconvenience I placed on his time. Harken the Younger of Vinedabara. He is a credit to the germanic peoples and I do so hope the campaigns there end soon. I look forward to their proper integration. If only there were not so many that stubbornly refused our generous offer of inclusion and saw what there is to offer.
Apologies, I do ramble. However, my point is while the process may be of divine inspiration, it is with human hands that they are made and that process is quite an enjoyable morsel of knowledge.
You probably need to add more water to it.
Egyptian here, why not just add dates and honey, like civilized people?
Honey, sure. However have you tried getting dates in this market? Sheer madness! If the market were sane we would not be having this discussion.
I too love the flavor of my wine exclusively with lead but recently the morning after headaches have been getting quite intense and I have awoken with a tingling sensation in my extremities.
Must be old age. I, too, began to fall apart at the ripe old age of 25. I find a little light ‘wrestling’ with one of the serving boys clears it right up.
Wine without lead?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ykmoh
