That's the English word for it. Auf deutsch, Stolle.

Aussie-speak for Stolychnaya - a cheap nasty vodka which is often a girls first experience with alcohol. Now renowned for pre-mixed drinks.
I'm lead to believe that the original Stolychnaya is an excellent drop.

Only USns spells it Stoli.Granted, I'm not a typical USn, have lost the eighties and parts of the decades on either side to the Third World. Having said that, I attribute my knowledge of the term to the BBC, via Edina and Patsy, sweetie darlin. (and it's not a low-end vodka this side of the pond).

dahling, are you sure you're not thinking of Bollie, sweetie? I mean, the fridge is practically stuffed with it, so long as Patsy hasn't found the key again...
