Legend has it Jeppson's was allowed to make Malort during Prohibition because the government thought no one would drink it for pleasure. The "unusual botanical" is Swedish Wormwood.

[@havehadit460]

Isn't wormwood slightly psychoactive?

[@mefirstyoulater]

No. It just purges you of internal parasites. The whole "psychoactive" thing is a bit of a myth that came about from commonly being adulterated with crazy and poisonous things like copper salts that 19th century bottlers used in absinthe because there were no regulatory bodies to stop them.

[@tvtitlechampion3238]

@@hunterjohnson8999 yep, exactly how it starts. The origin story I'm spreading is that the rise of Malort was generated by a bet made between a bartender and the owner at Simon's to see if this challenging product could be pushed. As with many controlled substances, the first ones are free.

spot on. i'm from chicago and that's how i was introduced to malort. they weren't even friends of mine--i just walked back into the party i was at after finishing a cigarette and these guys that were there gave me a shot. after i drank it they were all staring at me like they were trying to hold back laughter and i was like, "what? you guys think it's really that bad?" ...Well, at least that's what I wanted to say, but before i could finish my sentence the taste hit me like a freight train. it starts off innocently enough. it's the taste you get right AFTER drinking it that's the killer. creeps up the back of your throat and just invades your skull. its taste is honestly somewhat reminiscent of bug spray or like, antiseptic spray. no joke.

So several months after being made aware of the existence of Malort by this review a buddy of mine who was in Chicago for work actually brought some back and had me try it, and I actually kind of liked it! It's definitely bitter, but where I was expecting bug spray it really reminded me more of a really dry grapefruit flavor. Doesn't have any real smell to speak of though. Would probably work well in a cocktail with something sweet to balance out the bitterness.

2 things: 1.)Malort pairs nicely with Stiegel Radler. A shot in half a pint of grapefruit radler is delicious. 2.) The "unusual" botanical is wormwood. The reason it taste the way it does is Carl Jeppson was a chain cigar smoker and needed something he could taste through his 20 stogies a day

Being from Chicago, I felt I had to try Malort just once. And yes, it will only be once. I believe I have the flavor locked in: it is rotten grapefruits, fermented in turpentine for a very, very long time...though your inclusion of bile is very accurate, and it may be an additional ingredient. I'm not sure what's worse, the actual taste of Malort, or the fact that the putrid flavor sticks in the back of your throat for about 20 minutes, and absolutely nothing will get rid of it. Trying it once is way more than enough.
