—” it can’t be nastier than Jägermeister. Can it?”
This is the new, worse version of Jägermeister.
From Wiki: “Known for its extremely bitter taste, Malört has been described as “infamous” and “the worst booze ever”.[5][6][7] It can be found in some Chicago-area bars and liquor stores, and is growing in popularity there[when?], but is hard to find elsewhere in the United States.... According to legend, Jeppson preferred the strong taste because years of smoking had dulled his taste-bud... John Hodgman said Jeppson’s Malört “tastes like pencil shavings and heartbreak... compared it to “taking a bite out of a grapefruit and then drinking a shot of gasoline”
Just read the Wiki article. Sounds like an acquired taste that I won’t be acquiring.
