SUPERSIZE ME
 
Magnums on the mind
 
 
 
Forget mini champagne, shots and tiny tasting bottles: supersize is the way to go. Supersizing to 150cl to be exact. The magnum can be a somewhat scary concept, usually pertaining to flashy clubs, served in a human-size bucket with a sparkler to finish. We say forget the sparkler, go big and go home.
. . .
 
 
FASHION ON THE ROCKS:
Roberto Cavalli Vodka
. . .
Cavalli’s first foray into the drinks industry is the only vodka entirely produced in Italy. To be had on the rocks with tonic, natch darling.
. . .
£109
. . .
PARTY FAVOUR:
Prosecco Valdobbiadene Millesimato 2009
. . .
Upscale the fizz for a Bellini blow out. It makes a great present too.
. . .
£25.40
   
. . .
 
 
FUN CHAMPERS:
Dom Pérignon Vintage 2002 Luminous Label
. . .
A firm Dom Pérignon fave (we like the glow), now available in the big boy size.
. . .
£290
. . .
KEEPSAKE:
Crystal Head Vodka
. . .
Channel Damien Hirst and McQueen through this goth-esque vodka (it’s even filtered three times through crystals). This one’s for keeps - reuse as a morbid decanter.
. . .
£145
   
. . .
 
 
XXXL CHAMPAGNE:
Louis Roederer Cristal Methuselah 2002
. . .
And then there’s the 600cl, for "special" occasions, complete with wooden chest. Just how do you pour?
. . .
£8,150
. . .
AN ABSOLUT STAPLE:
Absolut Blue Magnum
. . .
And lastly, a staple vodka - Absolut recently launched their original in magnum size. So that’s Caesars every morning…
. . .
£84.66
   
. . .
