Premium brand alcohol

[Dutchie20]

Does the Shadow offer premium brand liquor such as Crown Royal, Grey Goose, etc? My husband enjoys Crown and wonders if he needs to pick up a bottle in LAX. Not a huge issue, but would like for him to have some if he so chooses. I personally love wine, so I know I am covered!

My wife drinks Crown Royal, I drink Johnney Walker Black--no problem at all--always in the Suite when we arrive! Don

Thanks!

Yep, I had a big fat bottle of Grey (Gray?) Goose in my room on the Whisper.

Husband only drinks Crown Royal. Always in our room and at every bar.

Sounds like a pretty extensive selection. Does anyone know whether single malt scotches are available? I've only seen reference to blended ones, such as Johnny Walker and Chivas Regal. Nothing wrong with these, mind you; I just have a preference for single malts.

Thanks

Okay, since someone raised the topic of premium brands I'll ask something I've been wondering about--how are they paid for when ordered at a bar? I haven't been on an all-inclusive ship yet, so I wondered whether one pays drink by drink with a check one signs for each time or whether there is a running tab and it's just added to the shipboard account. (And if a check, I would add a tip, but is that not done?)

Its simple--you order it--they serve it--you drink it--say thanks--it's not necessary but if you want to tip--slip something at the and of the cruise or make a contribution to the crew welfare fund! If its your first cruise all inclusive--you will love it--back to tipping--you will find the crew doesn't hustle for tips--all they want to do is make your cruise the best possible! Don

largo162 -- there's a small range of single malts including Glenlivet and Glenmorangie, but not a whole lot else.

 

flag fan -- a range of super brands such as some of the most exotic brandies is available. So is a "connoisseur" wine list. If you order one of these, you get a chit to sign. No tipping. But I've seen people bring their own "special" wine more often than I've seen people buy from the connoisseur list.

Thanks very much for the info. Either of the two you mentioned will do nicely.

Largo162, I just returned from the Shadow and, as on my previous SS cruises, the only single malts were Glenlivet, Glenfiddich, and Glenmorangie. I've been asking about Macallan, Lagavulin, and a few others for years, but so far no luck.

[Guest largo162]

Wellseasoned - I'd choose the Macallan if it was available, but any of the other are fine. They all seem to taste better in a deck chair at sea.

Tahiti11,

 

I suggest you list it on your guest information form prior to boarding in the "Did we forget anything" section.

 

Enjoy your cruise!

Thanks for the answers. I'm really looking forward to my 1st Silversea cruise.
