Excerpt from Report on the Cheap Wines: From France, Germany, Italy, Austria, Greece, Hungary, and Australia: Their Use in Diet and Medicine Throughout my book I have kept constantly in view the difference between pure wine and distilled spirit, and have shown how the addition of the latter to wine affects the sense of touch, and deranges the true sense of taste, all over the gustatory apparatus and beyond. From personal experience, I say that the hot, strong, so-called Sherries supplied at many hotels, and used in many families, are disgraceful to those who sell and dangerous to those who drink them.
