Mekhong Thai Spirit

I am 56 years old and not normally a spirit drinker but a friend bought me back a bottle from Thailand and thought I would give it a try well to be truthful wish I had discovered it a long time ago as when I do have a sprit which is not often am always left with a bad aftertaste but not with mekhong so will be adding that to my shopping list from now on

Dinner time? Food is not ready? Pour Mehkong in a wide tumbler with thin walls. Let your hand warm the liquid. Sip.

By the the time food is ready, your spirit is...

Best damn Thai whiskey in the Kingdom. A pretty Thai bar girl sitting next to me and a bottle of “Monkey” on the table-HEAVEN!

Love the aromatic!

Agree with WOW and Exotic Masterpiece. I first drank Mekhong 30 years and 2 months ago. I remember it well. We would drink it all night and then starting again at breakfast the next day. We did this for days on end and with no hangovers. There was some suggestion back then of it being laced with opium and that might be right considering some of the strange behaviour we got up too. Just brought a bottle today and drank it with Coke Zero and ice. Same unusual taste that I remember but one that I don’t mind. I usually drink Jim Beam but considering the price of the Mekhong I have no issues in continuing to drink it.

I was just given this by a customer, the general consensus of everyone else who has seen it is that he's trying to kill me. I'll let you know if I survive it.

I just had a Mekhong flashback. It's been 27 years since my senses had been shocked by Mekhong. Can't describe it. You MUST buy a bottle and try it for yourself.

Unbeatable!,.......
If you've been to Thailand you'll know why!!

Gives you a lift that would be illegal in most countries.....and you can do it all again the following day.

Some of the best events of my and my friends lives have been under it's influence.

Buy some!

I buy it soley for the utterly sublime summer cocktail "Thai Sabai"

Just back from Thailand and drank a bunch of this. Love it. It's sweet and a touch roasty. Smooth to drink straight and mixed almost invisibly into some tasty cocktails. Couldn't buy it at duty free due to my layovers or some nonsense. I don't know what sewage these guys were drinking. Maybe an ancient, opened bottle or something.
