I find unusual spirits interesting, and I want to hear about the ones you have.

I had a bottle of Arak from Palestine, that a previous boss had imported, and then gifted to me. It's anise flavored, clear when warm, looks like a snow globe if you refrigerate it, and turns white when poured over ice. So neat, but it tasted like anise :-P

I love Arak. Every country in that region has its local anise booze, and Israeli Arak is my favorite. I basically make my own by infusing vodka with anise.

That's basically what I tasted when I drank it - anise and intense alcohol is what I remember. It smelled/felt really strong, but I couldn't read the label at all so I have no idea what the proof actually was. At least making your own with a base like vodka you get to know that :-P
