My attention has been drawn to an entity in the Netherlands that may well cause some confusion among my myriad followers (AMToNW). Apparently, this company is creating alcoholic beverages under the name Vicus, and one variety is called Scura, which is Italian for "dark".
The only text that I can find on their site that approaches suitability
is this:
"Vicus Scura is best served at a temperature around 10°C"
I, on the other hand, am not in great need of being waited
upon, but given my druthers I would opt for a much warmer environment.
Further, I need to clarify that my days of intoxicated
libation are in the distant past.
I hope that this helps.

What is a 'druther'?
I am told by a young friend who is something of an expert in technology that there is such a thing as a "search engine" where all of your queries may be answered.
I turned to the aforementioned search engine, thinking that a druther was a sibling who hadn't made much of his life but apparently not. This is a word from something called 'north american' english. Me neither! And according to a lady called Merriam Webster, she postulates that it means - 'preference —used especially in the phrase if one had one's druthers'. Well Miriam, I am frankly none the wiser and feel there must be a simpler recognisable word that conveys the sense more precisely. I await your response.
