Has anyone extolled the 'virtues' of Romanian Țuică / Pálinka yet?

Plum based loopy juice often homebrewed and left to fester, before being presented as either a 'gift' at a wedding or foisted upon unwitting strangers by way of making friends. We'll, that's what they told me on the latter point. I think it's just a prank on dumb brits.
Not the romanian one, but in my experience pretty every country has their own particular version. They're all absolutely honk.

Oh mate, you're not wrong. I've got 6ltrs of homebrew knocking around because each time we visit my missus's family I get gifted a 1ltr bottle. Proper rude to say no. Covid has saved me even more because we couldn't visit this last year. Another covid related point is it smells like hand sanitiser.

The good stuff is the blueberry infused version. That is genuinely nice. It's for 'the ladies' though apparently.

We've got friends in Budapest who buy us a bottle every time we see them, we just don't have the heart!

This sounds well dodgy...

Sounds like bumming juice ♡

New variant from BS, this has a warmer spicier taste. I'm more inclined towards sharp, peppery, dry gins, gunpowder especially, or more explicitly fruity little numbers, so I'm not the target really, not bad though.

I was going to say something about the small bottle making the glass look huge but that's a 700ml bottle...you're my hero. Hahaha

Not tried that yet but only for lack of opportunity. Had Serbian and Bulgarian rakias though which did the trick
