>>That's actually a little funny. I mean, how would we American's know about champagne? I bet a lot of us are even cutting back on the beer budget. Hmm, Guinness might be a good name for a dark morph.



Years ago,i was nearly fired from a bartending position for a series of events i knew nothing about until well after the club had closed up for the evening..,and writing down the name of the house champagne for a waitress is all i knew of it..

It seems there was a gentleman in the crowd that wanted to know the name of the cheap champagne we had served him,as a replacement drink for what he had ordered previously(and he ordered the "house champagne".)..Well unbeknownst to me this gentleman had to be escorted out of the building by security for his immediate and loud response to what the piece of paper said,that the waitress had handed to him...So what was the name of this cheap champagne?.It was Cordon negro..(,and no,i did not know anything about this individual at all...Ever seen a big club bartender stuff cash into a drawer on a busy night?)..My boss at the time was not even aware of the name of the house champagne,and he had to go check it out for himself before i was "let off the hook"...freakin insane i tell you.It was a damn circus in there...lol



It's to bad the Cristal company didn't use two L's or a K instead of a C..lol..,but it's simply another reference to the liquid champagne from my point of view.Whether it's simply a change of one letter or not..(A Mimosa is orange juice and champagne,and the Mimosa ball is a Orange hypo Champagne...same difference.)


Wicked snake!.,regardless of what anyone thinks of the name..Congratulations!
