										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ll let the pictures do the story telling &#8211; the gist of it is that we&#8217;re all now certified <strong>Absolut Connoisseurs </strong>woo hoo!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3233" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774602753/img_3233.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3233" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>Late comers! Yeap we had to take a shot of Absolut vodka as punishment.. Not a bad punishment indeed <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f609.png" alt="😉" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3235" width="293" /> <img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3242" width="293" /></p>
<p>Performing tests to compare the different vodka&#8217;s and flavours using our noses, taste and texture. Was really fun!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3245" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774602899/img_3245.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3245" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>Founder of Absolut, but passed away before he could see Absolut being exported worldwide. His face is on every Absolut bottle!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3249" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775140756/img_3249.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3249" width="293" /></a> <a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3251" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775140792/img_3251.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3251" width="293" /></a></p>
<p>@wackybecky and @MissyBlurKit going through the &#8220;cover nose&#8221; test, whereby we tasted something sugarish while our noses were clamped, to find out that it was actually cinnamon! Shows how important our noses really are, you try it!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3256" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603035/img_3256.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3256" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>The said cinammon sugar! Looks like brown sugar I tell ya, and tasted like sugar if you couldn&#8217;t smell it!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3273" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603133/img_3273.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3273" width="590" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://suanie.net">Suanie</a> here showed us how to do a Quickdraw Bloody Mary &#8211; pick up a cherry tomato, dip into pepper sauce, pop it into your mouth and shove an Absolut vodka into your mouth for pure bliss!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3276" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775140944/img_3276.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3276" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>With a master class like this, nobody could take their eyes off our &#8220;lessons&#8221;!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3280" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603185/img_3280.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3280" width="293" /></a> <a title="IMG_3232" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774602687/img_3232.html" class="broken_link"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3232" width="293" /></a></p>
<p>Of course it doesn&#8217;t help with the distraction&#8230; Pretty girls starting with <a href="http://helenness.net">Helenness</a> and <a href="http://rebeccasaw.com">Rebecca</a> from Advertlets, who graciously invited me for the event!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3284" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603219/img_3284.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3284" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>Just to seal the deal and show you what you missed out, take a look at these gorgeous girls! But then again, we could have been looking at them through vodka goggles LOL</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3286" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775141078/img_3286.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3286" width="293" /></a> <a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3288" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775141120/img_3288.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3288" width="293" /></a></p>
<p>The Absolut shots. Bottoms up for me!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3292" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603337/img_3292.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3292" width="293" /></a> <a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3300" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603379/img_3300.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3300" width="293" /></a></p>
<p>The Quickdraw Bloody Mary was really good. Everybody loved it! Here am I with @missyblurkit.</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3302" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603411/img_3302.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3302" width="293" /></a> <a title="IMG_3324" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603523/img_3324.html" class="broken_link"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3324" width="293" /></a></p>
<p>Even <a href="http://myhorng.com" class="broken_link">MyHorng</a> was ready with his Ninja Burger haha. Our faces were SO red. Anyhow, now that we&#8217;ve finished with our &#8220;theory&#8221; classes, it&#8217;s time for practicals! Mixing actual cocktails with pure unadulterated Absolut!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3312" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775141316/img_3312.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3312" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>You have no idea how many Absolut it took to make this whole classroom happy! Haha.</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3336" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775141398/img_3336.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3336" width="290" /></a> <a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3339" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603617/img_3339.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3339" width="293" /></a></p>
<p>Practical lessons &#8211; PASSED! We&#8217;re the best at making this because we&#8217;re the TEH TARIK experts! Malaysia Boleh!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3352" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775141470/img_3352.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3352" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;m not a big fan of them cocktails except THIS one. Oh yum, coffee liquor and Absolut, beautiful!</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3354" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603673/img_3354.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3354" width="293" /></a> <a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3377" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775141534/img_3377.html"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3377" width="293" /></a></p>
<p>Suffice to say, had loads of fun and learnt a lot of things about Absolut or vodka itself. Fantastic.</p>
<p><a class="tt-flickr tt-flickr-Medium broken_link" title="IMG_3380" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5775141570/img_3380.html"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone" src="" alt="IMG_3380" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>Ended the day with yummy sausages from <em>Brotzeit</em> Bier Bar &amp; Restaurant. YUMS!</p>
<p><a title="IMG_3268" href="http://spinzer.us/gallery/photo/5774603083/img_3268.html" class="broken_link"><img decoding="async" src="" alt="IMG_3268" width="590" /></a></p>
<p>This is all thanks to Absolut for making this happen. This sweet, pure and extremely clear drink has reasons to be proud of themselves &#8211; and this is one of the many reasons why <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f609.png" alt="😉" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>THANK YOU!</strong></p>
