june,

Her name is Gladys and she a kind gho- ooooh

Screwball. Does that count as a spirit?

fubarx,

Zwack Unicum from Hungary and 58% Kaoling sorghum liquor from Taiwan. The Kaoling can melt the bottom of plastic cups.

Had a bottle of fermented mare’s milk Kumis gifted from Kazakhstan, but it tasted like rancid cheese. Didn’t want to risk keeping it around once the bottle had been opened.

Mango,

Jumex.

The straight up instant refreshment of chugging a jumex after I get off work is far more pleasing than alcohol IMO.

stoy,

There have been a few people mentooning not drinking alcohol, so perhaps the next thread will be about “what is the must unusual non alcoholic ingredient in your home bar?”

RBWells,

You should post this in !cocktails too.

There are a couple of things I have to order online, that aren’t in the shop here but I like - Heirloom Pineapple Amaro is one. I do make liqueurs so those I guess are the rarest. Like someone else in this thread, I tried infusing cocoa nibs, but in whiskey and it was similarly awful.

stoy,

I wanted the largest reach to get as many responses as possible, so this community seemed like the best bet.

Can you crosspost like on reddit here?

RBWells,

Yes, the copy button at the top.

stoy,

Excellent, I mostly use Memmy on my phone, but I’ll check it out on pc later

ThatFembyWho,

Just finished off a bottle of chartreuse.

Now it would be sacrificio, a type of mezcal.

Most unique I’ve had might be Zirbenz stone pine liqueur.

I was gonna say chartreuse isn’t that exotic but then I remembered I’m French and it might be, when you’re not.

A bottle of Sam Adams Utopia

It’s like a punch in the face. We bought 2 bottles, passed one around on my wedding night and most people hated it, it’s so strong, we didn’t even finish it. I ended up giving that one to a buddy, and I still have the other bottle, but I haven’t found a reason to crack it open yet.

I’ve always wanted to try it. They passed around a bottle to sniff on the brewery tour and the thick maple syrup smell was intoxicating.

neptune,

I just got a bottle of malort. Yes. It’s vile. Bitter, herbal, barely sweet, acrid, astringent… It’s bad.

I have a whiskey aged on chestnut. It’s very good. Different than all the oak whiskey out there. A little earthier?

I have a bottle of aquardiente. It’s kind of a minty drink. Not good or bad persay.

Ouzo and absinthe are pretty typical I guess. Rhubarb liqueur and I’m not sure what to do with it.

Vincent,

The spirit of Christmas future.

Lophostemon,

I have a 5000 yo former prince of some whacky kingdom I can’t pronounce. His head is partly caved-in but he’s generally cheerful despite his gruesome cause of death. He lives (haunts?) in the sink but comes out to scare the dog and MIL. Classic white robe type deal but older than the usual ghosts I encounter.

jws_shadotak,

It’s not particularly rare but the we have a spiced rum called Kilo Kai. It’s mostly sold near Chicago.

We’ve had a consistent supply from visiting family members over the last few years.
