It's not just Pernod in Italian clothes, but if you can't stand anise, don't go near the Frenet.
I kinda liked the Fernet, and I hate ouzo or anise in general. A little dab'll do ya, however.
I'm all confused now. I despise anything licoricey, but the rest of the descriptions sound, well, if not good then at least interesting. Perhaps I shall give up on it here, since there doesn't seem to be much point looking here anyway, and count on trying it at the next F2F.
Three pictures from last night's "Welcome shrift to Chicago" dinner: [link]
I remember somebody trying to persuade me that Shrift's real name is not Shrift. This is clearly crazytalk. She is the very incarnation of Shriftishness, and could not possibly wear any cheerful wee festive-sounding diminutive of a name. She is
SHRIFT.
the licoreness of Fernet is way exaggerated her - there are like 30 herbs inthis drink. It is a cacophany of flavors. the end note for me is a little mint. bitter pepper ( harsh green ) is the front end.
If I could actually taste more I would go get a shot and break it down more.
stoooopid ick.
FINALLY!!
I know you were breathless with anticipation.

Thanks and thanks!
Deb, I thought that might be her, but wanted to be sure. Corrected.
