The worst tasting liquor I've tasted!

Tequila with the worm is Mezcal, not tequila. Good mezcal is excellent. Earthy, like scotch.
The worst liquor is Sotol. Another moonshine from Mexico. We tried to sell it for 3 bucks a liter. No takers. Couldn't give it away, even to the employees.

I'm going to have to enter a dissenting vote here. I'm neautral on the basic licorice flavor, but high-quality ouzo is a good drink and fueled many a fun-filled evening when I lived in Greece.

On the other hand, cheap ouzo can be as awful as any drink anywhere. When you get a shot or two of that into your system, you know that you have stumbled into an establishment whose basic business message is GET DRUNK HERE CHEAP NOW. Sometimes you can get a preview of the coming hangover even before you feel the intoxication.

Maybe I killed my taste buds over there. I also like retsina, the wine that everybody says tastes like turpentine. Five star is a little too refined, but the three star stuff is great. Goes well with oily goat stew.

Brandy and most liqueurs will come back up even faster than they went down. I would make a terrible aristocrat, because cognac tastes to me like something you would give a heretic to tune him up before you sent him down to the dungeon for his interview with Torquemada.
 
I am so glad this wasn't me...

My stepdad, a Korean war era Marine told me the sickest he'd ever been was on saki. And he said it was pretty gross.

Stolen saki, mind you, that they stored in an empty fuel drum.


Myself...I can't recall the worst thing I ever drank. I do recall what was the most disgusting to be sick from. For a long time I thought it was Jack Daniels. However, Goldschlager plus Jumbo Jack and Monster Tacos trumps that easily.

Is that the stuff that stays in your system? The story I remember is that when you drink a glass of water the next morning you are instantly rat-arsed again.

Worse tasting liquor IMHO is gin. They don't call it mothers' ruin for nothing.
 
Fernet is pretty rough; so are some of the sweeter college-style things like Firewater, Sloe Gin, etc. There is some mint/menthe liquor that showed up in various cocktails over the years that still gives me "pause" but the name escapes me at the moment.

Creme de menthe?
 
Tried some of that Goldslauger and also the Yeagermeister
at a friends party last year. Don't know what the fuss is about.
Yuck... I'll stick to my beer thank you.

What you guys need is some good old Czech or Polish slivititz (spelling) great stuff. Had a bottle me Dad used to keep in the basement for medicinal purposes. Came in after shoveling snow and poured a shot. WHAMMMMMYYYY. Goes down like fire and then feels like a neuc went off in your stomach yeah great stuff. Haven't seen any for sale here in louisiana.

The worst tasting liquor that I've ever tasted was going the wrong way.

Back in my younger college days, I drank too much on occasion. I'd throw up and whatever it was tasted horrible, mixed with whatever stomach contents. Gross! Terrible after-taste.
 
Ratzeputz

Visiting distant relatives of my then wife, in Celle, Germany, they offered me a glass of the local distilled liquor that they were very proud of (or they were pulling a fast one on this American soldier ;) ). It's called "Ratzeputz". It tasted like fermented ginger root and it's downright nasty and burns horribly (116 proof). I drank it in one shot and smiled (didn't want them thinking I wasn't man enough, and I wanted to be polite). They poured me two more shots, which I regretably, but politely, accepted, but after that I said that I didn't want to drink too much and become silly. I had a churning upset stomach for two days after that.

They decided that I must like it, so for several years in a row they sent me a small bottle of it for Christmas. I used this "gift" to initiate new soldiers to my platoon by having them join me in a toast - priceless reactions ensued.
 
Mix the sweet tea with Minute maid lemonade and ice.

It is great!

Firefly, and Sweet Carolina sweet tea as well. Some like the lite minute maid.
 
Being Norwegian born it's taken for granted that we drink Aquavit on special occasions several times a year to perhaps retain our unique "Squareheadedness".......I became an American in no small part so I wouldn't have to taste it's spiced bilge water quality ever again.
 
I really don't like any colored whiskey, but I've had some foul red wine more than once. I think it will rid your yard of fire ants, and kill your grass, too. If you pour me a shot of apple schnapps, I will shoot you. Don't ask why.

LennyLames, there's a reason it's called "vomit".
