Word for That: Duffifie

I can’t tell you how much I love this word. Thank you to the Scots, for having a word for something that takes a sentence to explain:

Duffifie ~ To lay down a bottle on its side for some time, after its contents have been poured out, that it may be completely drained of the few drops remaining in it.

So duffifie that bottle of rum (or champagine, if that’s your preference), and don’t waste any.

Happy New Year!
