I'm happy this showed up, allowing me to learn about a weird foreign booze, since recently there was the Buckfast video allowing ye to learn about my local weird booze.

Total wine here in MI carries it.
It's not good. It is extremely bitter, but the real thing that lets it down IMO is the shitty booze base. But I guess that's part of the charm, because... chicago?

casualcollapse - 2023-01-22 I shudder to ask if it mixes with anything

It's a character and it's comedy, but it's fun.

I’m surprised this isn’t a tag already

I’m in Chicago and I genuinely and unironically like Mallort. But it’s not for everyone and I don’t blame anyone for not liking it. It’s really not that bad, though.

Malort. Because an invitation to a Swedish restaurant isn't a promise, it's a threat.

I was born in Chicago. I still have family there. But I never even heard of this until recently, let alone ever offered any. Guess my family was too dull and Northside for it.

Adjuvant - 2023-01-23 It seems to have got more of a life as a hipster bar thing where it's either used to ostentatiously burnish your Chicago bona fides or to torture the uninitiated or out-of-towners. Like I said, it's a strong flavor, but truly not that bad and even enjoyable in small doses. If you've ever had fernet before it's kind of on the same spectrum as that.
