Bees & nepal
I can just about give you that Jeff. It is a honey made from targetting polination of 2-3 specific kinds of rhododendron plant found in Nepal and on the shores of the Black Sea (Turkey). It can be used medicinally but leads to hallucination after relatively small doses. It was also probably the first ever biological weapon as hives from bees which had been feeding only on these plants were placed where Roman soldiers could find them on their way back from Persia - the inevitable happened and they were rendered incapable of any form of defence. Over to you.
 
Thanks cologne.

Very good. I was really surprised that it would go back that far.
Yeah, when I started thinking about it the cup has been won an excessive amount of times by a small number of clubs in the last twenty years. Thought I might have forgotten a team in the 90s though. Hard to include Dedcrapp’s Portsmouth.

In honour of the totally relaxed time I am in having in Spain, and without googling (there are a finite number of guesses to make before you get it), after Real Madrid and Barcelona, which team has won La Liga the most times?

(Disclaimer: the accuracy of my answer depends on how well I counted, which may be open to challenge).

First candidate to spring to mind is Atletico Madrid ?
