Rare babs135 Posted November 2, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Is this being replaced? Just been on another site and someone has posted that the bottle awaiting them was Tulloch Cuvee. Comment was that it was much nicer than the PA, but that's not saying a lot 🤣 One can only hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underwatr Posted November 2, 2019 #11 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Peach juice would be nice but I just tick the box on the door hanger for orange juice and it arrives in the morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siforest65 Posted November 3, 2019 #13 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I must admit, it’s not a brilliant taste but reminds me I’m just about to sail on a brilliant cruise. Be nice if they did change it though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david,Mississauga Posted November 3, 2019 #14 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I always complete the questionnaire and in the "box" that asks for comments I suggest it is time to replace the P.A. with a different cheap bubbly, of which there are many. I hope others do the same, but I doubt these questionnaires are of any value when it comes to suggestions. I wouldn't bother filling them out except I do like to give credit to the excellent staff. One thing I have noticed over the years is that the P.A. isn't consistent. If in an optimistic mood I could say it is better some years than others, but perhaps it is better to say some years it is worse than others. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many good sparkling wines out there less than the cost of Champagne, but hard to tell the price point Cunard would be targeting based vs what they pay for P.A. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMac1953 Posted November 3, 2019 #17 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Incidentally, our "welcome back" champagne, on QE, was Veuve Cliquot, which was a first for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a great welcome. Was that in Queen's Grill? I ask because we have receievd the real thing only in QG, never in any of the other categories.

BigMac1953 Posted November 4, 2019 #21 Share Posted November 4, 2019 We embarked on 20 October and were in QG (as usual). Normally, since they discontinued Perrier Jouet, it has been Laurent Perrier, so it was a nice surprise. We actually had a few more to add to the collection.

Underwatr Posted November 4, 2019 #22 Share Posted November 4, 2019 IMO in a Pol Acker thread, mentions of "Oh we got this or that premium bottle on our last voyage" should mention whether they're in Grills. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cook68 Posted November 4, 2019 #23 Share Posted November 4, 2019 (edited) On Queen Victoria right now look what we have. I have a gin mixer at the ready so hoping that takes the edge off 😆 Edited November 4, 2019 by cook68 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, of course, I'm sorry. Though of course WC members get Pol Acker as well. There is no escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
