I'll be taking a mix of Ginger Wine and Rum (approx 60/40).
We rowed up at Newcastle last weekend, and waited on the water for over an hour in Baltic conditions before the race started. I took the flask, and got 9 thumbs up for the above.
If you are a flasker, what's your tipple?

chrisdavis,
Where do you buy Ginger Wine, I haven't seen it in years and it's fantastic with Whisky.
Armagnac in one flask, rum in the other. Both are great in chocolate chaud as well as neat.
Now there's a lovely idea - I'm off into the kitchen to heat up some milk!

Sometimes The Macallen (which can be put in other things, though its a waste), but usually Lagavulin (which can't).

Was whisky this trip, but I have been converted to port. Ginger wine sounds like a good idea too.

word of warning, be careful if you carry your hip flask in a coat pocket, as I used to ... that is until I fell one time, nice big dent in the hip flask and a cracked rib too.
!!!!!!! OUCH !!!!!!!!

Having sampled Sloe gin, I think im going to have to invest in a hip flask next season.
Megamum, hope you've got a brew underway and will have your flask with you next week!

I don't carry one but can I just say that I hope the proponents of rusty nails and whisky macs are using cooking whisky.
