Quite a lot of variety in this category. A few pieces with a personal opinion of the writer, as well as some background stories on topics from our own times.
Ever wonder why some people can hold their liquor extremely well as where others get drunk from a few glasses? Well, we already explained why some Asians get drunk very fast and why alcoholism is such a big problem among American Indians. Now it’s time to tackle another question: why do Jews hardly drink? It’s…
If you are a regular follower of Lords of the Drinks you know we like to keep things light around here. Also you will very rarely see a post written in the first person. Well, this post is gonna be different. Every since a boeing of Malaysian Airlines carrying 193 men, women and children from my…
The newly appointed president of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker “has cognac for breakfast”, claim sources among European Union officials, quoted by The Independent. The Luxembourger, 59, recently became famous not only for his high position, but also for his alleged heavy drinking and smoking.
It’s no secret that the Lords of the Drinks love to drink and don’t mind to get drunk either. But there’s drunk and absolutely smashed, hammered, mortal, shitfaced or whatever you want to call it. One day in the year we know for a fact that we will not get fashionably tipsy. If our livers…

One of the first things you are told as a new student at the American University in Blagoevgrad is that THE party of the year is Drunken Eagle. This is when all Albanian students chip in to cause brain damage to the entire student body. Usually Drunken Eagle is celebrated around the 28th and 29th…
As you know by now Lords of the Drinks supports everyone who has their right to drink violated. 80 years since the end of the prohibition in the United States it seems that all over the world we are moving backwards again. Politicians think they can decide what’s best for the people. Instead of insuring…
To finalize our Peruvian theme day we have quite a special short documentary for you. Metropolis TV shot people at a cemetery in one of the poorest areas of Peru’s capital Lima. The tradition there is to drink with the dead loved ones. In the Western World it would probably be a discrase if people…
This person should’ve been born in Bulgaria. Or somewhere in the Balkans. He would fit best in the crazy, chaotic peninsula with a pinch of oriental spices where people are serious when they say “party”. They know how to make it. Mother Earth gave Micky a wonderful gift in Bulgaria that he carried back home;…
