It's a fabulous drink, as for what is it made of that depends as it can be made of many things it depends on who's home brew you're drinking. Not known of anyone becoming impotent quite the reverse i think. Booze

The brandy's pretty good - Pliska, and you have to try it in the Hot Choc. The red wine goes down pretty well and I don't get a hangover from it so that's always a plus. Booze Booze Booze Booze Don't worry if your a lager lad as they have a few to choose from, It doesn't taste as strong as the ones back in the Uk though - not sure if that's a positive or a negative comment though.

re: Raika what is it?

Yes Vicki is a good friend of mine we met in Sunny Beach in July this year. She's going out to Borovets on Wedneday to work the season at the Happy Duck. The ex-pat community is not that large here as many people are buying for investment purposes rentals that type of thing. A week or so there was a posting saying that Bulgarians are thieves - they steal your heart and don't give it back. I know that both Vicki and myself agree with this whole heartedly.

This is a great place. I only moved out here permanately just over a month ago I gave up everything to move here, I'd never even been to Bansko before this, but I dont regret a single moment, my only difficulty that I have is learning the language, but everyone wants to practice their english on me so I've just got lazy.

re: Raika what is it?

Well me and 4 friends are comming out to borovets on feb 26 so we'll see just how right or possibly wrong you are, so far the only country to steal my heart is Cyprus. I'm just learning to snowboard this year so I think this will be a good introduction to eastern europe. Do alot of people speak english over there? As the only other foreign language's that I know even a few phrases in are Polish, German and French.
