Not sure of the spelling either, but it sounds like cushk.

thanks for responses.  I 'googled' kirsch which confirms that this is a german cherry liquor.  I did also try cushk which google suggested might be cuhk - chinese university of hong kong !!!  This question could be used on a quiz night - but we need to know the answer first !!  I was thinking I would like one built in palatial grounds of a fab property which appears regularly in my dreams!!! I know - I'm sad. - but happy. Does anyone know the answer ?
