Wine & Cheese Italy vs Spain @ Spencer & Co 13th March 2019
March 13, 2019 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
$65Italy vs Spain. Wine vs Wine. Cheese vs Cheese.
The Spaniards drink more but who does it better?
Both Italy and Spain have the European “drink with food” culture. Spain drinks quite a lot more because alcohol is more tolerated.
Spain = 11.2 litres per capita per year – pretty typical of Europe (eg UK is 11.6)
Italy = 6.9 litres per capita per year – the lowest in Europe
(this might be related to ‘bella figura’ – both in terms of alcohol being fattening and that being drunk in public is very bad form)
