A while back in conversation, you mentioned that in Turkey you saw vodka infused with licorise. While preparing a bottle of potcheen for shipment out of the country, i decided to dilute some and try infusing it with some fancy black licorise that i was given for christmas.
I think i will like it as i have grown to enjoy the taste of the regular moonshine in orange juice

Hey, I'm a topic!

It was Sweden, rather than Turkey, but yes. I got my hands on some Danish salty licorice a while ago and dissolved it in some poteen. I would drink it in a bar, I think, but somehow it's not what I crave at home

Happy Christmas to you, Scotty!

Happy chritsmas to you too Dave. I will wait a week or 2 to try it. 115 proof is a bit strong for me but i do actually find the taste without the licoris enjoyable. I diluted it to 80 proof and made 1500 ml of irish cream with that. Then i took it to a party christmas eve and had them all singing italian songs in a short while. lol. Theywere going back for seconds and thirds.
