I use a high proof clear apricot brandy (not the sweetened goop that gets labelled as "fruit brandies" but are really liqueurs). It's too strong to be enjoyed any more than a thimble at a time and I have bottles of the stuff (how I ended up with so many is another story). Using it as pipe cleaner is a great way to reduce the inventory. ?
if you need to unload a few I think I know a guy that could help. And when I say unload I mean drink and when I say a guy I mean me.

The aroma of this apricot brandy is far superior to the taste - this is coming from one who enjoys not just cognacs and rums but also grappa and eau de vie. I haven't tried it watered down or in a cocktail (not really my thing). yet. I usually have my spirits straight and mixed (gin or rum) on really hot days only.
