Does anyone know how I might get ahold of some passum (raisin wine)? i live in the states. Im not too keen on making my own, maybe if i had a bigger yard...

I don't think it's something you can get anywhere; I've used a heavy Sauternes as a substitute before now. I guess you could try various heavy sweet dessert wines and see what works - maybe a Spanish or Greek muscat, so long as it's thick, sweet, and kind of raisin-y flavored.

It is made in Texas!

Marvelous! Now all I have to do is find a way to get some. I've got a local liquor store who keeps me in nice whiskey, though, so that shouldn't be too hard - thanks for the pointer!
