I can drink a 1 liter bottle of this stuff in about an hour. I rarely do this, though, because it gets me drunk like motherfucking hell (though, interestingly, I'm never nauseous from it). You can buy these nifty little 0.1 bottles and they're great for measuring out how much you intend to drink while you're still sober. Three 0.1 bottles is a good starting point and you won't get drunk (too much).

OK, I suppose there's this little austro-hungarian thing in between the Balkans and the Czech republic/Slovakia. In my brain I conflated all those mid-european countries in a very typically American offhandedly ignorant way. I apologize.

Which actually raises the question, do they drink slivovitz in austro-hungary, or is there somehow a geographical slivovitz vacuum between czech and the serbo-croatian successor states?

quote:

Also decent plum brandy does have a flavour, just as e.g. apricot brandy is quite unmistakable. However, it's an acquired taste, and you need to get over its varnish-stripping qualities to appreciate the subtleties hiding underneath. It's difficult to say how much practice it takes to get to like slivovitz. Some natives have been training since early puberty and still only drink it because of a sense of duty.

To be sure. I actually like it, although I tend to like a lot of what you might call 'difficult ethnic boozes', but at the party where my bosnian acquaintance first brought a bottle for us all to try, I was the only one who liked it. And it sits at the back of the cupboard because I'm way more likely to want a glass of bourbon or scotch or gin or something. But it gets a few sips every year or two.

Oh gently caress yes. Schlivovitz, we have it. Culinarily speaking, Austro Hungaria still exists, or more precise, the Austro-Czech part. Nobody really knows or cares what the Hungarians do. Nobody. On the countryside, people will often make their own Schnaps from fruit that they have in their gardens. Obstbrand or "Obstler". Lärchenschnaps or Zirbenschnaps (Clear Schnaps with inlaid larch twigs) is more something of a speciality. "Medicine" Heh. The czech grandmother of my wife treated me with with homebrewed Slivovitz when I first came to visit Moravia. Turns out she had 3 demijohns in the cabinets in her bedroom. Not these small demijohn, but the large ones that hold like +50L. She said "It's for my funeral". The stuff was stroooong.

Judging from the way that she stored the stuff, I suspect she wanted to get cremated.

Speaking about Inländerrum or Stroh. Nobody but the bums drink it here, or buy it for the rumflavour in bakeries. Is it popular abroad? An example for successful marketing?

e: speaking of which: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusel_alcohol

What wikipedia doesn't tell you is, that Fusel was a brand name of super cheap schnaps in the Monarchy, so cheap that it became synonymous with the stuff that makes you blind and crazy.

I was about tto come and ragepost about austro-hungary being dead for a hundred years but culinarily I'll let that slide.

One thing about Russia I'd really like explained is their obsession for taking steam baths in the nude in groups of 10+, for hours on end. Anyone know where all that originated from? I mean I know its supposed to be healthy but they do a lot of eating and drinking IN the sauna which is weird to say the least.

It's like that Arnold Palmer half lemonade/half icedtea that you can buy in the big can for 99 cents. Except, instead of tea half is beer.

Stroh 80 is the strongest alcohol outside of some absinths you can get in almost every liquor store, so it has some "Try some of this poo poo" customers. I don't believe there are many repeat customers after the "80% alcohol lol" gimmick wears off.
