Looks interesting

I'd certainly try that, although I hope it's not too expensive.

is it just me? Or do I vaguely remember reading that the Foreign Legion experimented with concentrated wine rations back in the 1950s?

Untill recently the french had proper wine in their rat packs

I saw on another site its £6.88 for 4 pints
Cheaper than a pub at least!!!

 

[Macaroon]

If you drink five pints of this do you then have a concentrated p155?

Yes, la legion used to have vinogel, gel cubes that could be dissolved if wine could not be dissolved, mentioned in The thirteenth valley, a gripping account of Dien Bien Phu.

Thanks! I vaguely remembered what Iread was about that time period; and now that you've jogged my memory a bit I also remember the name "vinogel." I could have read it in that very title you mention, The Thirteenth Valley, but my memory isn't quite that good to be sure.
