MalÃ¶rt Face

Originally uploaded by phil dokas.

Back in my college days, my friend Geno and I were on a MalÃ¶rt’s kick for a bit…

You say you’re not familiar with MalÃ¶rts? Let me share with you what Wikipedia has to say about my favorite “Swedish style of schnapps”… :)

From the label of Jeppson’s MalÃ¶rt:

“Most first-time drinkers of Jeppson Malort reject our liquor. Its strong, sharp taste is not for everyone. Our liquor is rugged and unrelenting (even brutal) to the palate. During almost 60 years of American distribution, we found only 1 out of 49 men will drink Jeppson Malort. During the lifetime of our founder, Carl Jeppson was apt to say, ‘My Malort is produced for that unique group of drinkers who disdain light flavor or neutral spirits.’

It is not possible to forget our two-fisted liquor. The taste just lingers and lasts – seemingly forever. The first shot is hard to swallow! PERSERVERE [sic]. Make it past two ‘shock-glasses’ and with the third you could be ours…forever”

Perusing some of my RSS feeds today, I found a recent post by John Hodgman (one of my favorite authors and Apple Spokesmen) who pointed me to my new favorite Flickr Pool: MalÃ¶rt Face (snapshots of people reacting to tasting MalÃ¶rt’s for the first time)…

Perfect.

Follow-Ups:
- The A.V. Club does a taste test of Jeppson’s MalÃ¶rt

- Hodgman is a connoisseur

“Wine was invented by the Romans for orgies and orgies are not too much fun if no one wants to do with you”

Oh, man I’m laughing… :)
