Bolivian Wine

  Wow, somehow I missed ALL of these replies. Most likely, I deleted the first ... "Mosquito Bar, Rurrenabaque, Bolivia" turns up the region roughly, but, I don't think, the establishment, given that the only in-country hit is for a state park.

"Mosquito Bar, Rurrenabaque, Bolivia" turns up the region roughly, but, I don't think, the establishment, given that the only in-country hit is for a state park. Perhaps you'd care to narrow things down a bit? (If I had a gmail account for you, you'd already have access to do so, in fact.) @RachelNYC: We've included several places that aren't really Proper cocktail bars, in some cases because they've got clued bartenders, in others because they just do what they do (beer, tequila, atmosphere, history) Well. But your assertions are (explicitly!) noted. Honestly, I think the NYC list needs some culling. There are several places on that map that I think are... how do I put this politely? ... "posing". Thank you all for your recommendations! If anyone would like the ability to contribute (and promises to Play Nice--not that the whole thing isn't versioned and revertible, just don't be an asshole), we're happy to provide that. Just drop RBoulanger or me a private message with your Google username and we'll tack you on as a contributor    (hide)

Cabeza del condor - head of the condor - and looks like a condor's head with the neighbouring peaks being the outstretched wings - climbed, but failed 100' from the summit due to very unsafe snow !http://www.gowander.com/user_files/Image/mount%20walk%20out%20m%20.JPG! Alpamayo, Peru - not climbed, but want! The cool route (directissima!) is straight up those channels on the South West face, its not hard, but a little dangerous as the runnels channel all the debris onto your head !http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2f/Alpamayo.jpg    (hide)

Thats pretty funny - I used to be a volunteer teacher there, and remember trying some local wines. They arent as bad as wines from the Philippines, but yeah, they are pretty crappy. One general site tip I have regarding value wines is that when you do a search the default sort order is by highest rank, however you can change that (on the right hand side) to sort by Quality / Price ratio - thats the easiest way to see whats "trading cheap"!    (hide)
