Pedro Milladino is back with another front page article. This time he writes about the devil's own brew, Khmer Palm Wine.
Check it out here:

"Kampong Speu is much better known to Khmers as the best province for palm wine. Although the Lexus driving middle classes from the city will turn stubby noses up at the suggestion of the peasant’s tipple when in polite company, the link to the rice fields is no more than a generation or two long, and the lure of the underclass can be too strong, so many will pull over along Highway 4 to quaff a litre or two before heading down to Kampong Som to drink ABC and Johnny Walker on the beach."
In praise of palm wine

This is a nice piece. I always enjoy Pedro's distinctly unique writing.
I know I'm unloveable. You don't have to tell me. I don't have much in my life, but take it - it's yours.

This subject matter requires an expose less flowery in its linguistics, I reckon. It's a hard man's drink with the requirement of a rougher edge to the tale.

I didn't mind the style of writing. OK he may be unintentionally parodying wanker-wine writers I dunno.

In Bali this is known as Old Man Drink and this old man found it relaxing and mild when I could get it , the fresher the better.

Buscador has turned that off so it must be lingering in your cache. It's easily solved. Go to the circle in top right hand corner and there is an option to revert to the desktop version of the site.DetroitMuscle wrote:Too bad I can't read it on my mobile due to a horribly designed user interface..
