When I was young you get a glass of  Bristol Cream (Spanish) over a Christmas visit if someone is rich and Emva Cream (Cypriot sherry) if they are poor. As all my friens were poor students, we drank a lot of Cypriot Sherry.

Try cooking with dry sherry. Its a great substitude for chinese wine in all chinese recipes. Sherry is also good in coq au vin.

Another trick is to flambe with brandy then add a dose of medium sherry over meat.
