From the label of Jeppson’s Malört:
“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(via WP)
I got to taste Jeppson’s Malört at MaxFunCon 09 when the fabulous Mr. John Hodgman passed a bottle around during his keynote. I doubt that I have ever tasted a more wretched liquor, as to what it tasted like I said this of it after that taste, “The flavor is oddly like that of the rind of a green orange.”
Mr. Samuel Hansen’s composure after tasting such liquor is remarkable. I waited until John cracked (what I hope was) a second bottle on Saturday night after the dance party to give it a shot, and the face I made was so wretched that everyone - even John himself - cracked up.
I proceeded to steal Martin Starr’s bottle of wine right out of his hand and take a swig directly from it to see if I could kill the after effects of the Malört in my mouth, but that’s a different story.](http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksm1ewrVwx1qzgdzuo1_400.jpg)
