Can I drink hard liquor after drinking wine without being sick?

• Of course you can. I'd try a bottle of Tanqueray to begin with. See how you go. If that doesn't work, well at least you know now. Proof positive, so to speak.

• You guys make me worry I'm hardened alcoholic. I commonly accompany a good dinner with a good wine and then finish it off with an espresso and a brandy. If it's a party then this can be multiples of all of these - furthermore I haven't been sick for some decades and even then (as I recall) it was generally beer by itself that caused that. Am I channelling Oliver Reed?
