Bishop's office beginning to enjoy hard liquor and meat spread (10)
I believe the answer is:
episcopate
'bishop's office' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'beginning to enjoy hard liquor and meat spread' is the wordplay.
'beginning to' suggests taking the first letters.
'hard liquor' becomes 'pisco' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'meat spread' becomes 'pate' (I've seen this in another clue).
The first letter of 'enjoy' is 'e'.
'e'+'pisco'+'pate'='EPISCOPATE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for episcopate that I've seen before include "bishop's office" , "See" , "clergyman's office" , "Bishopric" .)
